Dull and Unoriginal Lyrics

Help me to be patient

And tell me this nightmare

Will not last forever

The nightmare will not last forever

I will be better

Wake me, darling, wake me

When you see the strain

On my eyes and my forehead

I need you for that

Stay tonight and spare me

Another bad dream

I need the light on your face

So don't let me go

Close your eyes and tell me

What you'd like to be

I may write seventeen stories

On seventeen dreams

But everything fails to

Make me forget what has been

Oh please don't let me go

Dull and unoriginal

Is everything that's left

To scrape off of my cutting board

To try and sound pitiful

And though life's not

Wrapped up in clover

Sometimes I hear myself

Cry It's not over

Oh please help me calm down

Help me breath in

Teach me to let it go

Please don't let me go

Nothing much to say then

The candle light's fainting

And sure as hell

It's gonna be dark again

Daylight has burnt again
