Hmm, what a beautiful day I'm waiting for the sun to save me From the love that hates me All the lovely maybes that keep me under Should've kept my head down Out of the spot light Lettin' go of what's right It's johnny five minutes left Til he takes the stage I'll give him five minutes Til he loses face I give up don't you know To live, it means to grow And I forgot to grow Head so far up his ass It stunt his growth Left behind in such a speed People pass him by And it makes his eyes bleed So he sleeps Chorus Wake me up when I'm dead The sun is shining Wake me up whan I'm dead I'm sittin' this one out Cause the next one's gotta be much better I'm sittin' this one out Cause the next one's gotta be much better I'm holding my breath So wake me up when I'm dead The sun is shining The sun is shining I guess I'm a hard man to please No, first you wanna kill me Now, you wanna kiss me Blow, I never asked for this I took the logical path of progression Trying to score but I always miss It's a no win situation What's good for them is dangerous for me I gotta practise being patient Or I can face it I don't have a place An outcast in an elevator stuck in outer space Chorus / Bridge The sun is shining The sun is shining The sun is shining The sun is shining For God's sake, I'm trying to get some sleep So give me a break and leave Give me a break and please...
