lyrics

I came back out again
For the last time
I lost my mind again
Somewhere inside

And I don’t need help
I just need woken up

Am I sleepin’? Am I dreamin’?
Will you pinch me if I’m seemin’
Like I’m hazy, like I’m crazy
Like I never cared at all
Now I’m wheelin’, I’m not feelin’
Much of anything I’m dealin’ with
I know that you’ll be happy just to
Know that I have gone

And it hurts you just to be anywhere near me
and I'm sorry
And it hurts me just to see everything that we could be
Everything that I gave up

I won’t forget the fall
That brought me here
But I forgot the times
When things seemed clear

The hopes, the dreams
It all seems broken up

Am I sleepin’? Am I dreamin’?
Will you pinch me if I’m seemin’
Like I’m hazy, like I’m crazy
Like I never cared at all
Now I’m wheelin’, I’m not feelin’
Much of anything I’m dealin’ with
I know that you’ll be happy just to
Know that I have gone

And it hurts you just to be anywhere near me
and I'm sorry
And it hurts me just to see everything that we could be
Everything that I gave up

And now I know that there’s no way of going back
And now I know you’ll leave me lyin’ on my back

I’m on my feet again
I guess it’s time
You’ve got your wings again
And I’ve seen you fly

So I let go
Of everything that I have known

I’m not sleepin’, I’m not dreamin’
Though I’m sorry if I’m seemin’
Like I’m hazy, like I’m crazy
Like I never cared at all
Now I’m wheelin’, I’m not feelin’
Much of anything I’m dealin’ with
I know that you’ll be happy just to
Know that I have gone

And it hurts you just to be anywhere near me
and I'm sorry
And it hurts me just to see everything that we could be
Everything that I gave up
