I dreamt you called

And woke up angry

'Cause ever since you left

I've been going crazy

And I can't do this anymore

It's useless heading down this track

'Cause I stopped drinking

And I quit smoking

But my anxiety came back


I could dream for years

A thousand lifetimes

Without all these fears

There'd be nothing that was

Out of my reach as long as I could

Think it up it'd be good enough

But I can't think about anything except

Everything that's wrong with me so


You push me 'til I fall down

'Til I can't get back up

And still, I hope you'll be there

Each morning when I wake up

And I know I need this

I'm learning how to grow up

To fall down, to fall down

To fall down, and get back up

What's the use of words

Without any meaning

'Cause you say everything

Without any feeling

And I can't ignore this anymore

When there's so many things that I lack

When I was younger, I had passion

Now I have to fight to get it back


You push me 'til I fall down

'Til I can't get back up

And still, I hope you'll be there

Each morning when I wake up

And I know I need this

I'm learning how to grow up

To fall down, to fall down

To fall down, and get back up


Don't tell me to write you another bitter song

Well I'm, not going to sit around and

Wait for something to go wrong

I'll take the reins, I'll take control

I just can't do this anymore

There's nothing stopping me

'Cause I'm not stopping

You push me 'til I fall down

'Til I can't get back up

And still, I hope you'll be there

Each morning when I wake up

And I know I need this

I'm learning how to grow up

To fall down, to fall down

To fall down, and get back up


I dreamt you called

And woke up angry
