Sitting next to your bed at half past five
I'm hardly breathing, I'm barely alive
But I'm way too scared that there'll be conflict
If I wake you up right now
I'm in tears, I've tried all the helplines
But yet again, I feel so helpless
Why am I scared of what you'll say?
If I wake you up while I'm feeling down today
And you're sleeping so softly, it's so hard to watch
How you're dreaming while I can't breathe
And the clock ticks while I still run out of breath
And I've never been so scared to death
♪
And I know that things will get better
And I know, it could be worse
And I promise you I'm trying
And I'm sorry for bothering you
I'm sorry I trust you
I'm sorry you're the one that I run to
I'm sorry that I'm in tears, I've tried all the helplines
But yet again, I feel so helpless
Why am I scared of what you'll say?
If I wake you up while I'm feeling down today
And you're sleeping so softly, it's so hard to watch
How you're dreaming while I can't breathe
And the clock ticks while I still run out of breath
And I've never been so scared to death
♪
I'm being told I need medication
To counteract my pain and frustration
'Cause nothing is helping and everything's hurting
I hate feeling this way
I'm in tears, I've tried all the helplines
But yet again, I feel so helpless
Why am I scared of what you'll say?
If I wake you up while I'm feeling down today
And you're sleeping so softly, it's so hard to watch
How you're dreaming while I can't breathe
And the clock ticks while I still run out of breath
And I've never been so scared to death
