Why can't I just wake up?
Can I share my dreams, fill your loving cup
And You'll fill mine to if I could be so attentive
But I cannot find the door to use, nor the words to direct it
And the daylight binds me, you drift so fine
I only wanted to sing it all to you
So why can't I just wake up
Oh why can't I just wake up
When will these walls break free?
I've been pounding at the plaster here for three long weeks
Or maybe it's been fourteen months or maybe since September
For all intents and purposes I really can't remember
Why the time eludes me, you move right through
I keep the memory of your scent in here with me
So when will these walls break free
Oh when will these walls break free
And all I come to are words I cannot find
So why does this sleep still bind?
Oh, how long will I sleep this time?
