lyrics

Wendy

how have you been sleeping
how have you been sleeping
sleeping is for everyone else
should you/we be awake

how have you been breathing
how have you been seeing things
living is for everyone else
are they really living

how are you this evening
did you have to climb on through
winning is for everyone else
are they really winning

leave a little headroom
leave a little legroom to
comfort is for everyone else
are they feeling nice

blaming isn’t winning
no one will escape the truth
you’ll be seen by everyone else
are you seeing things

how have you been sleeping
how have you been sleeping
dreaming is for everyone else
should you be awake

awake…

will we go on shrinking
how do you think this ends
futures are for everyone else
should i be afraid

who are you protecting
who, when you’re killing me
who is it you’re trying to impress
evil is a thing

where is this all going
are we there yet still
what is this location i’m
should you be awake

should you be awake
should you be awake
