I been waitin', wide awake for the waves to come and take Take me right to you One hundred bottles of the good shit, couldn't even bring you back What am I to do? Feel like I'm circlin' a drain All I see is the remains of an ugly truth One hundred models I could follow all the way to hell and back But they can't replace you Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh I was puttin' on for you like a jersey What I didn't know then couldn't hurt me Never thought you were gonna do me dirty Left me in the cold, but on the inside I was burnin' But that's just the way it goes Wish that I could have control Everybody dies alone (And I ain't dead yet) Say my prayers But I lost faith a long time ago (A long time ago) Dream nightmares I guess we're gettin' used to losin' hope (Guess, we're losing hope) I don't even wonder why you don't answer When I call your name Are you on the other side? Will you save us? Or will you run away? I'm still waitin', wide awake for the waves to come and take Take me right to you (Take me right to you) One hundred vials of denial, I know they won't bring you back What am I to do? (What am I to do?) You're my alibi and motive When I'm lyin' to myself of the ugly truth (What an ugly truth) We're no strangers to the flame We will never be the same if we make it through (And we can make it through) My back is up against the wall But I used to feel invincible Yeah, it was us against the world But somehow, someway, the take was comin' I remember back then Played my cards right you were my best hand Still you keep me guessin' Wonder if I'll ever get the message Say my prayers But I lost faith a long time ago (A long time ago) Dream nightmares I guess we're gettin' used to losin' hope (Guess we're losing hope) I don't even wonder why you don't answer When I call your name Are you on the other side? Will you save us? Or will you run away? (Are you on the other side? Will you save us?) (Or will you run away?)
