It's way too late to think of
Someone I would call now,
The neon signs got tired.
Red eye flights help the stars out,
I'm safe in a corner,
Just hours before me...
I'm waking with the roaches
The world has surrendered,
I'm dating ancient ghosts,
(the ones I made friends with)
The comfort of fireflies,
Long gone before daylight...
And if I had one wish fulfilled tonight,
I'd ask for the sun to never arise.
If God lent his voice to me to speak
I'd say: "Go to bed World!"
I've always been to lame
To see what's before me
And I know nothing sweeter than
Champagne from last new year's,
Sweet music in my ears
And a night full of no fear.
But If I had one wish fulfilled tonight,
I'd ask for the sun to never arise.
If God passed the mike to me to speak
I'd say: "Stay in bed, World... Sleep in peace!"
