Lyrics
It's way too late to think of
Someone I would call now
The neon signs got tired
Red eye flights help the stars out
I'm safe in a corner
Just hours before me
I'm waking with the roaches
The world has surrendered
I'm dating ancient ghosts
(The ones I made friends with)
The comfort of fireflies
Long gone before daylight
And if I had one wish fulfilled tonight
I'd ask for the sun to never rise
If God lent his voice to me to speak
I'd say:" go to bed, world"
I've always been too lame
To see what's before me
And I know nothing sweeter than
Champagne from last new year's
Sweet music in my ears
And a night full of no fear
But if I had one wish fulfilled tonight
I'd ask for the sun to never rise
If God passed the mic to me to speak
I'd say:" stay in the bed world... sleep in peace"
