C G Am
I lay down and watch the sun come up
C G Am
don't know how long it's been since my eyes were shut
C G Am
and they're burning, I'm twisting, and turning
F G
a lonely night, a tired morning
C G Am
I'm isolated, awake at five a.m.
C G Am
unmotivated, unplugging the clock again
C G Am F
I lose track of when this day ends and the next one begins
G
so eventually..
C G
I'll take another pill to fall asleep
Am F
and slip into unconscious reality
Am G
I slowly fade away and begin this dream
F G
where the pieces fit so easily
C G Am
I walk around like an outcast to all the lights
C G Am
and sounds losing grip of everything
C G Am
I daze away and dream more in the day
F G
wasting time losing sleep, I can't escape
C G Am C
I'll make it somehow, I'm not sure
G Am
just how that may be
C G Am
I'll fake it 'till I find a cure,
F G
I'll just assume for now I'll have to..
C G
Take another pill to fall asleep
Am F
and slip into unconscious reality
Am G
I slowly fade away and begin this dream
F G
where the pieces fit so easily
C G
I'm never really awake
Am F
but I'm not asleep, no I'm not asleep
Am G
I slowly fade away and begin this dream
F G
where the pieces fit so easily
(Instrumental)

and don't wake, please wake me up
G
(can't you hear my pleading?)
C G Am
I'll make it somehow, I'm not sure
F G
I'll just assume for now I'll have to..
C G
Take another pill to fall asleep
Am F
and slip into unconscious reality
Am G
I slowly fade away and begin this dream
F G
where the pieces fit so easily
C G
I'm never really awake
Am F
but I'm not asleep, no I'm not asleep
Am G
I slowly fade away and begin this dream
F G
where the pieces fit so easily

I'm never really awake
Am F
but I'm not asleep, no I'm not asleep

I slowly fade away and begin this dream
