It's gonna get harder from here
 
 We've gotta get smarter to make it out alive
 
 Cause you say stop and we say go
 
 Don't wanna be your tenth caller on the radio
 
 So don't bother cutting me off short tonight
 
 We let our words speak for themselves
 
  
  Don't take it all so far
 
 Don't make it that much harder
 
 Than it already is for you to stand alone
 
 For you, for you, for you
  
 
 To wake up knowing you've got the day
 
 To take on without feeling okay
 
 To make yourself unwilling to sleep away
 
 Sleep away the pain
 
 Don't take off running without my say
 
 Don't pay that price you thought you'd pay
 
 You're got the choice you've got the time of day
 
 Just don't sleep away the pain
  
 
 Hold on tight to the things you're given
 
 The camera caught it all, aren't we all forgiven now
 
 Cause you say stop and we say go
 
 The world outside is calling on the telephone
 
 They need answers
 
 So we'll let them know
 
 Tonight, we let our words speak for themselves
  
 
 But maybe I'm not right
 
 We're so damaged by the sunlight
 
 Can we make it through together
 
 Cause honey I don't like this kind of weather
 
 When I'm with you...
  
 
 To wake up knowing you've got the day
 
 To take on without feeling okay
 
 To make yourself unwilling to sleep away
 
 Sleep away the pain
 
 Don't take off running without my say
 
 Don't pay the price you thought you'd pay
 
 You're got the choice you've got the time of day
 
 Just don't sleep away the pain
 
 Just don't sleep away the pain
  
 
 It's gonna get harder from here
 
 We've gotta get smarter to get this all in line
 
 Cause you say stop and we say go
  
 
 To wake up knowing you've got the day
 
 To take on without feeling okay
 
 To make yourself unwilling to sleep away
 
 Sleep away the pain
 
 Don't take off running without my say
 
 Don't pay the price you thought you'd pay
 
 You're got the choice you've got the time of day
 
 Just don't sleep away the pain
 
 Just don't sleep away the pain
