Lord, please take my wings
Cause I ain’t bright enough to work these fancy things
I lose my teeth and I go blind in all my dreams
I’m too damn scared to ever leave
Lord, please break my bones
‘Cause I threw faith aside and dealt away my soul
Now I pray to suffer you whenever I’m alone
To setting fires and blowing smoke
CHORUS
Wake me up when it’s all over
And gray skies have turned blue
Until I’m sure that all it is
Is loneliness just passing through
Nothing else that I can do
But sit right here and talk to you
Lord, I’m slowing down
I still got things to do before I hit the ground
Feed the dog and walk her one more time around
‘Fore I dim the lights in this old house
CHORUS
Wake me up when it’s all over
And gray skies have turned blue
Until I’m sure that all it is
Is loneliness just passing through
Nothing else that I can do
But sit right here and talk to you
Ain’t nothing else that I can do-o-o-o
But sit right here
And talk to you
