Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Saw the world turning in my sheets

And once again I cannot sleep

Walk out the door and up the street

Look at the stars beneath my feet

Remember rights that I did wrong

So here I go

[Verse 2]

Hello, hello

There is no place I cannot go

My mind is muddy, but

My heart is heavy

Does it show?

I lose the track that loses me

So here I go

[Chorus]

Ah-ooh

Ah-ooh

Ah-ooh

[Verse 3]

And so I sent some men to fight

And one came back at dead of night

Said he'd seen my enemy

Said he looked just like me

So I set out to cut myself

And here I go

[Chorus]

Ah-ooh

Ah-ooh

Ah-ooh

[Bridge]

I'm not calling for a second chance

I'm screaming at the top of my voice

Give me reason, but don't give me choice

'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again

[Chorus]

Ah-ooh

[Verse 4]

And maybe someday we will meet

And maybe talk and not just speak

Don't buy the promises

'Cause there are no promises I keep

And my reflection troubles me

So here I go

[Chorus]

Ah-ooh

Ah-ooh

Ah-ooh

[Bridge]

I'm not calling for a second chance

I'm screaming at the top of my voice

Give me reason, but don't give me choice

'Cause I'll just make the same mistake

[Bridge]

I'm not calling for a second chance

I'm screaming at the top of my voice

Give me reason, but don't give me choice

'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again

[Chorus]

Ah-ooh

Ah-ooh

Ah-ooh

[Outro]

Ah-ooh

I saw the world turning in my sheets

Ah-ooh

And once again I cannot sleep

Ah-ooh

Walk out the door and up the street

Ah-ooh

Look at the stars

Ah-ooh

Look at the stars fall down

Ah-ooh

And wonder where

Ah-ooh

Did I go wrong
