yellow angels

as the car begins to roll

i smile as i lose control

this weightlessness is such a gift

'cause gravity has lost its hold

i see the sky and then the ground

kaleidoscope of light and sound

catching flashes of my life

just then the house lights all went out

i want to know myself so bad it hurts

i am a shelf holding unread words

i've said goodbye so many times in my life

i'm surprised it's still so hard for me

to see that i should start living my life

or i will die unfulfilled and empty

i come to still in the chair

as yellow angels step with care

my spinal cord still sending shocks

but my life's in need of repair

there's got to be more than this

i don't want to just exist

as a hollow house for bones

more alone every minute

is there a place where i can start again?

i've said goodbye so many times in my life

i'm surprised it's still so hard for me

to see that i should start living my life

or i will die unfulfilled and empty

wake up

you're sleeping

wake up

you're sleeping behind the wheel

wake up

you're sleeping

wake up

you're sleeping behind the wheel

wake up

you're sleeping

wake up

you're sleeping behind the wheel
