laid in bed hating the world
yes i laid in my bed hating it all, all, all.
i laid in bed waiting for the sky to fa-a-hall.
and somewhere else you were laying in be-e-hed.
hating the world like i have just sai-ai-aid.
and nobody would tell me and nobody would tell you-ou-ou.
there's someone out there doing exactly what you do-o-o.
it would have made it so much more worthwhile
if we could've married and had a child
(at least that's what they say.)
laid in bed waiting for the sun to
explode and shatter light over me-e-he
i laid in bed awaiting catastrophe-e-e.
and you were still laying with your arm across your chest
wondering why your sleep didn't give you rest.
he would've had small fingertips
and learned to smile and sing and sit
much like you
we would've sent the pictures to
the relatives so they could view
our little boy
but nobody would tell me and nobody did tell you-ou-ou
there was someone out here doing exactly what you do-o-o.
and it would've made this morn worthwhile
if i could've known about your smile
at least that's what they say.
and they talk, and they talk, and it doesn't make a differance.
and they talk, and they talk, and i'm learning not to listen.
i'm learning not to listen at all.
