Hmm, what a beautiful day

I'm waiting for the sun to save me

From the love that hates me

All the lovely maybes that keep me under

Should've kept my head down

Out of the spot light

Lettin' go of what's right

It's johnny five minutes left

Til he takes the stage

I'll give him five minutes

Til he loses face

I give up don't you know

To live, it means to grow

And I forgot to grow

Head so far up his ass

It stunt his growth

Left behind in such a speed

People pass him by

And it makes his eyes bleed

So he sleeps


Chorus

Wake me up when I'm dead

The sun is shining

Wake me up whan I'm dead

I'm sittin' this one out

Cause the next one's gotta be much better

I'm sittin' this one out

Cause the next one's gotta be much better

I'm holding my breath

So wake me up when I'm dead

The sun is shining

The sun is shining


I guess I'm a hard man to please

No, first you wanna kill me

Now, you wanna kiss me

Blow, I never asked for this

I took the logical path of progression

Trying to score but I always miss

It's a no win situation

What's good for them is dangerous for me

I gotta practise being patient

Or I can face it

I don't have a place

An outcast in an elevator stuck in outer space


Chorus / Bridge


The sun is shining

The sun is shining

The sun is shining

The sun is shining

For God's sake, I'm trying to get some sleep

So give me a break and leave

Give me a break and please...


Chorus
