Intro Verse It’s light now, it’s light I've been awake all night now, I’m deathly tired Tired of the earthquakes kicking us to the ground Sick of the cursed ocean between our filthy mouths Chorus Fall asleep with the TV on The pigeon purrs at the worthless dawn Another damning day creeps into view Falling asleep to thoughts of us The faded spark of the far-off touch And all I really want for me is you Verse Well it’s dark now, feels like everyone died Now I’m the only living thing for miles I’m standing breathing signal cigarette smoke In the hope that you’ll see it, find me and drive us home Chorus Fall asleep with the TV on The protest cries for blood and bone And all I really care for is the truth I’m falling asleep to thoughts of us But the detail’s bleached, it’s not enough And all I really want for me is you Bridge Chorus And I fall asleep with the TV on The gunshot brings an exhausted soul And all I really care for is a truce I’m falling asleep to thoughts of us The whispered fizz of a distant love And all I really want for me is you
