Lanaea's Lullaby from MESSAGES by MESSAGES

They tried to tell you this would come
as if knowing would change the way it feels
but now it’s here and you're on your own
you'll just have to deal
advice is easier to give
than ever helping out for real
in theory it sounds good and fine
but it never foots the bill

don't worry bout' the day Lanaea
expel all thought and be at peace
you're on your own but hey Lanaea
you don't have to break the lease

you grew a shell and hunkered down
your resting face became an anxious frown
you've loved and lost now turn and toss
in sheets until the dawn
You twitch awake when you zonk out
and no one’s laying next to you
helpless like a raft at sea
wishing the night was through

don't worry bout' the day Lanaea
expel all thought and be at peace
you're on your own but hey Lanaea
you don't have to break the lease

can't be alone with your own thoughts
they're far from being on your side
They'll make you think that they are you
they will take you for a ride
but there's another point of view
a witness tucked behind the scenes
you can let it believe all that it sees
or it can oust what it all means

don't worry bout' the day Lanaea
expel all thought and be at peace
you're on your own but hey Lanaea
you don't have to break the lease
Don’t worry about the day
You’re going to be ok
Don’t worry about any bity ol’ thing no no
Just wait and see, all will go your way
