Testo Please

I stare at the headlights 'til I get my head right
And the dogs stop their howls on the porch
My head is an ocean and I'm getting homesick
For a place I've never known
And I just keep laughing when I'm stuck in traffic
At the metaphor I've become

Maybe I'm restless, a manic, depressive Or maybe I need someone
Or maybe not

So please just give me something for the pain
'Cause my heart softens to your name
And when you're gone I come undone
And when you're gone I come un–
Weak, and I walk wires and I pull teeth
And I'm so tired of chasing dreams
I need someone to wake me up
I need someone to wake me up
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh

I remember the evening you showed me Cat Stevens
Now I fill the room up with "Father and Son" Two minutes emotion, for I was frozen
By the fear and the boredom
Now I've run out of reasons to pick up your pieces
I just tried to recall what once was

Maybe I'm desperate, a manic, depressive
Or maybe I need someone
Or maybe not

So please just give me something for the pain
'Cause my heart softens to your name
And when you're gone I come undone
And when you're gone I come un–
Weak, and I walk wires and I pull teeth
And I'm so tired of chasing dreams
I need someone to wake me up
I need someone to wake me up
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh

And I want you
Oh my god, I want you
To see me here this day
And I want you
Fill your sleep and haunt you
To see the mess you've made
You've made
And I want you
And all my dreams are no use
When I am wide awake
And I want to
Believe I haven't lost you
It's driving me insane
Insane

So please just give me something for the pain
'Cause my heart softens to your name
And when you're gone I come undone
And when you're gone I come un–
Weak, and I walk wires and I pull teeth
And I'm so tired of chasing dreams
I need someone to wake me up
I need someone to wake me up
Oooh, oooh
