Lyrics

[Verse] I gave my things away I called the people that I only see on holidays This next year's gonna burn a hole in me I spent my weekdays in my car And the weekends drinking hard enough for two I think I'll settle down one of these days 'Til I catch my breath I feel the weight of the world on my back But I'm not feeling sick to death [Chorus] 'Cause I laid awake in bed and thought of better times I never want to sleep 'cause I found apathy In laying down and never waking up Never waking up [Verse] I learned a lot today 'Cause there's a reason why I'll never live the easy way I'm trying to be real I wrote down words inside my arm That say "I'll never walk alone," 'cause I get tired I know I'll have my friends in every way So I caught my breath And for the first time I found what I'm looking for [Chorus] I laid awake in bed and thought of better times I never want to sleep 'cause I found apathy In laying down and never waking up Never waking up I laid awake in bed and thought of better times I never want to sleep 'cause I found apathy In laying down and never waking up Never waking up [Bridge] Yeah, I went down Yeah, I found a way In the city where my father was born, I had a dream I moved out west I finally found out what I wanted to be, so I picked up where I left And I waited two more years and covered up my ears I think I'm ready to sing this time (I think I'm ready to sing) I think I'm ready to sing this time I really think I'm gone [Chorus] I laid awake in bed and thought of better times I never want to sleep 'cause I found apathy In laying down and never waking up Never waking up I laid awake in bed and thought of better times I never want to sleep 'cause I found apathy In laying down and never waking up Never waking up
