Wide awake, from the pain in your neck Keep your eyes on the road and forget what they say I hope the voices in your head only whisper today But I know they scream instead I hope the fire in your belly doesn't smoke out your brain We'll play hide and seek with the world on the other team Sleep for the rest of my days And I'd just wish the world away So chew me up and spit me out I'll hit the bed before I drown Restless nights, alone again That stabbing pain in your head You'd rather be home You'd rather be home again You'd rather be home With trapped nerves in your neck 'Cause you're the air in my lungs And I'm the tear on your cheek So I'll turn off my alarm so we can sleep 'Cause I wish you felt better (Cause you are better) You are better than me On and on we're only getting deeper Too deep for you to see So chew me up and spit me out I'll hit the bed before I drown Restless nights, alone again That stabbing pain in your head You'd rather be home You'd rather be home again You'd rather be home With trapped nerves in your neck Sleep for the rest of my days And I'd just wish the world away So chew me up and spit me out I'll hit the bed before I drown Restless nights, alone again That stabbing pain in your head You'd rather be home You'd rather be home again You'd rather be home With trapped nerves in your neck I wish you felt better You are better than me
