Sleeping In

Packing up the pictures in an old shoe box It's so silent I can almost hear you walk Down the hall standing in front of that window If heaven is so high, then why are you so low? Does it feel, that you're taking back the love that made him real In the darkness you will always see his face And I could never take the place of him Today I'm sleeping in Woke up it's too late and I should be in school There's always something wrong when you ignore the rules Never want to see myself in front of that window Sucking up your tears, didn't want to let me know too much Reaching out your hand for one last touch Take me with you, everybody here is fake And I don't want to feel the same when you give in In a lifetime, time will always take our place But I will lay here shielded from the pain This is a long time from today You gave me all that I could take And gave me strength to carry on In the darkness, you will always see his face And I don't want to be there when you do, give in In a lifetime, time will always take our place And I will lay here shielded from the pain I do whatever I want, you never let me down I always know when lost somehow you're found Although life has all thse consequences now And that's OK, and that's OK --- Sleeping In - No Use for a Name
