Wake from Wake (EP) by àilì er

- Lyrics -
I have been waiting for this
Since late summer when
Swear I could find you in every song
And every line
Was driving me back to you
And further from alright

When I could make any song about you

I was told to follow my heart but it was taking me in circles
Feeding off the mellow days
And beating with addiction to the nights when
I was drunk, you were insane
How in hell did we ever get home?
Designer drugs and cheap champagne
Can only lead us for so long
You'll only lead me for so long.

You stood for every thing I
Everything I hated and loved
Like a powerful storm
Threatening to the sea
Yet a beautiful recklessness
Seductive from the beach

But I think I might be ready now, to leave.

I was told to follow my heart but it was taking me in circles
Feeding off the mellow days
And beating with addiction to the nights when
I was drunk, you were insane
How in hell did we ever get home?
Designer drugs and cheap champagne
Can only lead us for so long
And I've been waiting for so long.

Waiting for the day when I
Could finally write this song without lying
Waiting for the night when I
Could look back on it all and try smiling
Waiting for the second I
Realized it might be worth trying
Waiting for the day when I realized

That if I can't find a way I'll make one
I can't lose myself to take one for the team
It's about time for me to start again
How was I supposed to know when

I was young, you were insane
How in hell did we ever get home?
Designer drugs and cheap champagne
Can only lead us for so long
You'll only lead me for so long
And I've been waiting for so long
