about

An updated version with alternate bass and synth takes.

lyrics

Wake up,
and I'm still growing arms.
Wake up,
and I'm tripping on alarms.

Stand up,
and I'm still on my legs.
Stand up,
like on a still, clear lake.

But when I move about,
and you're not around,
I move about,
this torn map of a town.

And when I wake up,
and you're not next to me,
I know tomorrow
I can expect to see...

nature's out of town.
But I'm not out of time.
I'll meet you on a dime.
The sun sets on your frown.

And then we wake up,
and we're still arm in arm.

We wake up,
without tripping on alarms.

We stand up,
and we're still on our legs.

We stand up,
like on a still, clear lake.

But, still, when I move about,
and you're not around,
I move about
this torn map of a town.

And when I wake up,
and you're not next to me,
I know tomorrow
I can expect to see...

nature's out of town.
But I'm not out of time.
I'll meet you on a dime.
The sun set makes your crown.
