Lời bài hát Having Been Is No Way To Be
[Verse 1] Oh, I was naive My shoes were untied In Heaven everything is just fine But the phones are dead And so is the light And so are you And, honey, so am I But the Earth still turns For the unconcerned Days pass below like train windows I was a sapling tree The birds looked like me Oh, I begged my nerves to kick me something new [Chorus 1] From time to time I'd watch you sleep Oh, I wonder how much freedom we can dream And I'm sorry when you wake up to me [Verse 2] I just got tired Shining steady like a spider web's an empty stage Now people say What drugs did you take And why don't you start taking them again? But they're not my friends And if I was dead What difference would it ever make to them If I got high? [Chorus 2] From time to time Oh, I wonder how much freedom you would need And I'd be sorry when you wake up to me [Verse 3] I'm reaching out to you I'm writing all the time I don't see deep but I see far and wide I see dead trees But the roots have leaves Just because I can't describe it doesn't mean I shouldn't try To untwist the knife To unmake my mind Having been is no way to be alive [Chorus 3] And I'm alive When I watch you sleep I wonder how much freedom we need And I'm here when you wake up to me And I'm still here when you wake up to me
