Half step down

The guardrail is tempting me

Standing like a sentry to the left of me

Its guarding adventure that certain to be life threatening

Life threatening

I need a tragedy to wake me

from perpetual dreaming, the proverbial "pinch me"

I'm so sick of sleeping

I'm so sick of sleeping

And you wonder why my eyes don't leave my phone

(oh whoa oh oh oh)

It's no wonder that you feel like you're alone (alone)

I think I need a new story

One where I take on the world

The one I'm living is boring

It's killing you and me both

The car crash in front of me

Pulls me back from deep and desperate fantasy

Snaps me wide awake to see the horrible scene

What's happening?

What's happening?

Is this the tragedy I asked for?

Is this blood on my hands a consequence of my own war?

I'm so sick of sleeping

I'm so sick of needing more

And you wonder why my eyes don't leave my phone

(oh whoa oh oh oh)

It's no wonder that you feel like you're alone (alone)

I think I need a new story

One where I take on the world

The one I'm living is boring

It's killing you and me both

1st time through, these are Bm instead of A.

And you watch every time

As I give myself to death and neglect life

And I blindly desert the plot line you deserve

And you wonder why my eyes don't leave my phone

(oh whoa oh oh oh)

It's no wonder that you feel like you're alone (alone)

I think I need a new story

One where I take on the world

The one I'm living is boring

It's killing you and me both

It's killing you and me both

It's killing you and me both
