I set my words on the ground and I was grinding my teeth.
I planted pieces of light to see if planets could speak.
It took my mind by surprise when I was finally free,
Through all my darkest days.

I felt my heartbeat again, and dropped to my knees.
There was a sun in my eyes that made a star out of me.
It's like my life was a list and my head was first to get crossed off.
And It's the pleasure that I keep to sit down with my friends,
And talk about my day.

Can you hear me?
Well I don't even care.
I'll stop my screaming if you look the other way.
It's been a bad year,
So let me sleep in one more day.

I really found the simple things live closest to your home.
I'm not alone because I live inside a world that is my own.
I haven't found what I've been looking for yet,
But you can count on me to stay forever.

And that's the truth, we'll stay just fine.
I'm coming back and just on time to be myself again;
The way that made me real.
So tell me, have you surfaced yet?

This is how it felt when I was growing up,
And being part of no one but you found yourself,
And that says a lot to me these days.
I'm sorry for the way I used to be,
I was just a kid,
Just a kid.

Can you hear me?
Well I don't even care.
I'll stop my screaming if you look the other way.
It's been a bad year,
So let me sleep in one more day.
I really found the simple things live closest to your home.
I'm not alone because I live inside a world that is my own.
I haven't found what I've been looking for yet,
But you can count on me to stay forever.

Yeah, let me sleep it off.
"Try not to be hard on yourself,"
Was all I ever heard from her.
I finally think I understand what she was saying to me,
Because nothing's worth the pain in your back; believe in that.
The world can take control but don't ever lose your heart,
Because I know you better than that,
Because I know you better than that.

Can you hear me?
Well I don't even care.
I'll stop my screaming if you look the other way.
It's been a bad year,
So let me sleep in one more day.
I really found the simple things live closest to your home.
I'm not alone because I live inside a world that is my own.
I haven't found what I've been looking for yet,
But you can count on me to stay forever.
