[Verse 1]
If you can't tell me apart from a setting sun
I'll give you a hug
I'll keep it light, I'll keep it
Life don't make it oh-so serious
And a thousand opera singers working in Starbucks
Couldn't sing themselves to freedom
They couldn't sing themselves into the profits

[Chorus]
And listen to my words
Consider my lament
Hear my cry for help
God knows that I need it now
Hear me in the morning
I make my request
Sure could use the rest
Love me more than I love myself

[Verse 2]
Move me back when can I come in to your house
Spread your shield just like a bare open thing
Surrounded I call your name like the sleeve
Little home you will begin when I held out my mouth

[Chorus]
Listen to my words
Consider my lament
Hear my cry for help
God knows that I need it now
Hear me in the morning
I make my request
Sure could use the rest
Love me more than I love myself

[Bridge]
But I'm so heavy at heart
And my head's uptight and trying to think
Don't disturb
Please, don't disturb
Punch that mirror
Man, I'm disturbed

[Chorus - variation]
Listen to my words
Consider my lament
Save me from this nightmare
'Cause I don't think I can do it now
Hear me in the morning
[?] [?] [?] [?]
Just one of the thousand
And god knows that I need it now
