Everyday I'm asleep
spinning over the moon
but, my eyes are wide.
Everyday I'm alone
but, I like it so.
My time's my own.
So, tie me up in purple
and tell me I'm a fool,
'cause I'm known to run in circles
and I don't play by the rules.
Oh, and if I catch you staring
I'll cut you down your size,
'cause I know I've got green eyes.
Everybody's a stranger.
Everyone knows my soul.
Now and then I'll go.
If this is where I'm headed,
how do I wear my time?
So long are these nights.
So, tie me up in purple
and tell me I'm alright,
'cause I never was for certain
what I wanted from this life.
Oh, all the days and evenings
they are bleeding into one!
And I know, I got to run.
Let me lie in purple
and know that it's my choice.
All that's left of these moments
are collected in my voice.
No, I haven't tried my best yet,
no, I havent tried at all.
And I know, I've far to fall.
