Unfamiliar Ceilings
Some of us will learn
What none of us should know
Smoke will fill this room
There'll be nothing left to show
Hold on to
The ones you love
There will be
Time to show
Enough
We need each other like
Flower pots and dirt
Seven years we spent
Growing from the earth
It's hard to see
How all of this will end
For the consequence
Of broken heart to mend
Stay awake with me
It's getting light outside
When time is still for you it hurries
Stay awake with me
So I can see the sun
Rising up upon your shoulder
People change their ways
When there's nothing left to lose
Coffee talk and crimes
Runs cold blood though our times
You won't recall all your words
But the toughest beats
Will haunt your heart and mind
Stay awake with me
It's getting light outside
When time is still
For you it hurries
Stay awake with me
So I can see the sun
Rising up upon your shoulder
Stay awake with me
Take this picture
Move your face a little closer
Stay awake with me
Close the window
And stop this room from getting colder
Some of us will learn
What none of us should know
Smoke will fill this room
There'll be nothing left to show
Stay awake with me
It's getting light outside
When time is still,
For you it hurries
Stay awake with me
So I can see the sun
Rising up upon your shoulder
Stay awake with me
Take this picture
Move your face a little closer
Stay awake with me
Close the window
And stop this room from getting colder
