Half the day awake, half again asleep
I am left alone with dreams
I wouldn't carry fire -- I wouldn't carry you
Is it still a lie if it's true?
Do you never ask because I'll never tell?
We are both the same: unwell.
But how much would you ask, and what did you expect
of what it is that we have left?
Oh baby, you're a child
you fall asleep and I get wild
I turn to smoke when you need air,
I'm sorry, baby, I don't care
Do you never ask because you know I'll say
"You're the only one? Please stay.
But you're not the only one, and you know it's only fair
when you close your eyes, who's there?
You're a baby, you're a child
you fall asleep and I get wild.
I turn to smoke when you need air
I'm sorry, baby, I don't care
You're my only, you're my ...
I...
I take it back, I'll take it in
'til I never need air again.
