Lyrics

Sometimes I lie awake, wondering if I'll make it out of here, But the wind blows round my heels, so I stay I remember lying there, wishing I could be someone else Trying to find somehow to get away. If I asked him nicely d'you think he's show me how to fly, 'Cos the dust has weighed my wings down, and I'm too tired to try. Sometimes I sit here hearing voices in my head I try to understand, to make some sense. I wonder if I had to, would I lie to save myself? A plea of guilty, but self defence. If I asked him nicely d'you think he'd show me how? I'm sure he's out there listening, but he's too tied up Right now to try Try, all of my sins 'Cos I can't stop now, Just don't leave me behind. Sometimes I lie awake, wondering if I'll get out of here, But the words stick in my throat and I stay. I remember lying there, wishing I could be someone else, Trying to find somehow to get away If I asked him nicely d'you think he's show me how to fly, 'Cos the dust has weighed my wings down, and I'm too tired to try.
