[Chorus: Howie Day]
The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely wakin'
And I'm tangled up in you, yeah
[Verse 1: C-Trox]
Yeah, look
I left a voicemail, I hope that you miss me
'Cause right now I'm dealin' with all the sorrow (all the sorrow)
Numb my pain with the bottle of whiskey
I drink away the thought, I hope it's gone by tomorrow (tomorrow)
My only mean to communication is music (music)
Speakin' on the pain and the people that put me through it (I've changed)
Tellin' me to change and makin' fun of my name
But even though my heart is dead, wouldn't ever dare to do it (I would never do it)
Lately, things are movin' fast on this broken road
If you go behind my back, bet I'm takin' note (takin' note)
If I left, would you know that I'm gone?
Or would you keep movin' on?
If you don't listen, I can't miss a note (can't miss a note)
One thing I know is that you'll see my name (name)
I hope to God that you'll start pressin' "play" (pressin' "play")
So if you hearin' this song, just know I spend some time to miss you every day that you're gone, ah
[Chorus: Howie Day]
The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely wakin'
And I'm tangled up in you, yeah
[Verse 2: Abstract]
Never seem to say shit right over messages
Speak a little more clear off my penmanship
You were headed home while my mind already sailed the ship
My body may have been there while my heart already up and left
This a whole new world that I'm movin' to
I'm a different me; you know you're a different you
Leave us a mystery and make some memories so infinite
So bulletproof
I'ma go, I'll be the biggest artist you know
Chase photography with every single ounce of your soul
You got the vision, never quit it, sorry I was so short
Guess lovin' and leavin' again I couldn't afford
They say, "Better to love and lose than not to have loved at all"
I don't think they've had the option to dive in the third fall
Hope that it makes sense, hope that you can understand
This might be the proof of how I'm just a different man
[Chorus: Howie Day]
The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely wakin'
And I'm tangled up in you, yeah
[Verse 3: Deven Coleman]
Yeah, yeah, hey
They say, "You never really know what you got till it's gone" (till it's gone)
That's why I'm here writin' out this song (yeah, yeah)
I'm lost in the clouds of the pounds of the weed that I smoke
Tryna cope with my life as a whole
I lost myself when I lost my ex
No self-control, pop pills 'cause I stress
And now I digress, but still I've been searchin' for my way, like
"Where the road at?" for real
See, I've always been the one to have a vision
The type of shit that you dream of that's not on television
I'm talkin' that real shit that you feel in your feelin's
I'm never with the bluffers, I'm only with the realest, true
And this is my anthem
The young are not on rise, I've been deep but still standin'
Tryna show you that I ain't afraid of heights
'Cause you plus me means forever a good life, yeah
[Chorus: Howie Day]
The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely wakin'
And I'm tangled up in you, yeah
