Light Sleeper Lyrics

It's not gonna happen, that much is clear.

We're not gonna swing from the chandelier.

I'd be lying if I said I was having fun.

I feel like dying and I'm not the only one.

Please don't wake me, let me snooze.

I'm a light sleeper, with nothing to lose.

Please don't wake me, let me sleep,

I'm a bad swimmer and the water is deep.

We're alone now, no one is here. Am I the only one who's drowning in my fear?

Please don't wake me, let me snooze.

I'm a light sleeper who's drowning in booze.

Please don't wake me, let me sleep,

Pray to Jehovah, my soul to keep.

That's enough. I've had it up to here.

The jig is up, the buck stops over there.

Make it stop. I want to care.

That's enough, this is my stop, I'm getting off.

Oh wait I found it! It was here all along,

Buried in the words of your favorite song!

So can you taste it and tell me if I'm wrong?

Please let's wake up, cause we won't live that long.
