When you wake up and shake up the dust in your eyes

You walk to the mirror and remember your life

Maybe you're tired, or your mattress is firm

Maybe it's the lessons you forgot to learn

Then you put on your shoes with independent soles

Over your socks, which sometimes have holes

You have the money, but you find it funny

And God knows you can't handle the change

Then you walk out your door to see faces robotic

The storm clouds are blue, and they look so hypnotic

The pavement is cracked in all of the same places

You notice all the cracks are smiles of faces

Sometimes it's hard being this awake

It's so hard being this awake

Alive for all the broadcasts I make

Don't you know the snowflake's the same to me

Then the curtains in the sky part, and she is revealed

Her beauty stops you dead, on the concrete, you kneel and cry

Darlin', I'm not sure what I am to do

But the world is such a brighter place with you

Don't you know I keep falling deeper in love with you
