Athenaeum

Please wake me
I don't know if i'm still dreaming
Please wake me
I'm one side calm and one side screaming

Out into the hall
I never really thought that i was anything at all
Until i saw the person in the mirror on the wall
Staring back at me

Suddenly everything changes
Suddenly everything's fine
Suddenly the words jump off the pages
Suddenly i'm alright

Please wake me
I don't know if i'm still breathing
Please wake me
With one eye closed and one eye beaming

Out into the hall
I never really thought that i was anyone at all
'cause everyone around me always made me feel so small
But now that i can see

I've been waiting patiently
For you to come and rescue me from things
I know are sure to come
And i've been waiting here all day
But nothing seems to come my way
I know i'll never have it all

Please wake me
I don't know if i'm existing
Please wake me
Let me know if someone's listening

Suddenly i'm alright

Listening to teachers is bringing me down man
I thought they′d have much more to say
But on with my knowledge they sent me through college
I never had much of a say

But when I go
It′s a big mistake
′Cause they can′t teach me anything
I won′t learn anyway

Listening to teachers won′t turn me around
They fill me with things I won′t use
When they have the power to turn us into
Whatever kind of people they choose

But when I go
It′s a big mistake
′Cause they can′t teach me anything
I won′t learn anyway

It′s a big mistake

I wanna hear the words
That you never speak
I wanna close my eyes
And wake to your lips upon my cheek
I wanna know
would you still walk away
We′ve suffered enough this time
And these things will never go our way

Hold on tight ′cause I don′t wanna say goodbye anymore than you do
And all I see is you just wanna make believe
And I don′t have the words up my sleeve
I′m waiting for you

I wanna change
But these things will never die
I wanna hear you say
That nothing is stronger than you and I

You were right outside my window
Your skin still brown from yesterday
But I pretended not to notice
You just turn and walk away

All my life I′ve been a little weird
Friends of mine they′ve always disappeared
And I′m still running from the things I′ve feared
To fade away

Alone
On my own

You would always send good pictures
Your skin the perfect souvenir
But I pretended not to notice
You just turn and disappear

All my life I′ve been a little strange
Friends may come and go but I can′t change
And you′ve got yours so darlin′ don′t complain
Just fade away

Alone
On your own

I used to see you in the summertime
You always knew just what to say

You′re not alone

All my life I′ve been a little weird
Friends of mine they′ve always disappeared
And I′m still running from the things I′ve feared
To fade away

Don′t fade away alone
