It took a lot of me to get back up from sleeping

All my weight, the pressure and the floor

There isn’t more in a waking day than dreaming

Or so I thought

You came to me at the speed of a bad decision

Just the speed, the bad not so much

We held each other while everything burned up ‘round us

And inside of me, too

That’s called love

The traffic lights light up as we stand kissing

And the car horns play along

And though the sign says stop and look and listen

We don’t do that shit anymore

And he said so do you ever wanna leave here

And she said well that depends on the day

And he said oh do you even wanna be here

And she said well that depends on the way

I guess we never really had that much in common

‘Cept the days the nights and the cold

And though we don’t really talk about it often

The fear of this getting old

You didn’t listen when I told you I’m no dancer

Now I dance alone all the time

In the same room where I learned about the cancer

And you just held your head to mine

And you said so do you ever wanna leave here

And I said well that depends on the day

And you said oh do you even wanna be here

And I said well that depends on the way
