lyrics

the year

i've been sleeping through the morning
not waking till the afternoon
in my dreams i'm fixing everything

i've been no place with no one
i am floating all around the room
when i dream i can go anywhere

the year the house finally fell
the year the drought dried up the well
so many things i meant to tell you
the year the house finally fell

i've been waiting till the fire's out
and the candles have all burned down
in the dark i'm seeing everything

the year the house finally fell
the year the drought dried up the well
so many things i never did tell you
the year the house finally fell

the day the roof just caved in
the way i gave up trying to win
so many places i should've been
the day the roof just caved in

i've been sleeping through the morning
not waking till the afternoon
