lyrics

I woke up this morning with a warning in my gut.
I woke with an old bruise and a novel I wish I'd left shut.
I've never been a daylight lover, I'm a creature of the night.
I fight this war within me every time I taste the first sunlight.

Daybreak. I’ve been lying awake
it feels like years since I’ve been clear.
Daybreak. I keep pulling up stakes
looking for a fresh way to disappear.

I’ve been walking circles listening to the same 5 songs.
The hours drag so slowly till the evening comes creeping on.
I never trust my instincts, now my motives are suspect too.
I swallow the anxiety, pretend I know exactly what to do.

Daybreak. I’ve been lying awake
it feels like years since I’ve been clear.
Daybreak. I keep pulling up stakes
looking for a fresh way to disappear.

Go on, put the mask back on.
Never admit to self-sabotage,
never miss anyone till they’re gone.
Go on, put the mask back on.

Daybreak. I’ve been lying awake
it feels like years since I’ve been clear.
Daybreak. I keep pulling up stakes
looking for a fresh way to disappear.
