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
