Waking Life – Sorcha Richardson

Rolling thunder like a summer evening timpani
Raindrops hit my bedroom window
You say won’t you sing for me
I have seen the future, maybe its already here
Stick your neck around the corner, tell me if the coast is clear

I’ve been waiting on a sign, but maybe it already came
Shooting stars are crashing down
Setting fire to my name

But I just thought that by now, I would know how to love you
Thought I’d know how
Thought that by now, I would know how to love you
Thought I’d know how

Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise
Yeah all you hear is white noise
Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise

I can feel your hand is crawling underneath my collarbone
Wrap your fingers ’round my beating heart like branches overgrown
If the phone is ringing tell them I’ve already gone
If the choir started singing tell them I won’t sing along

Yeah I know we dreamed about it, waking Life is not the same
Winter well I dream of Summer, Summer days I dream of Rain

But I just thought that by now, I would know how to love you
Thought I’d know how
Thought that by now, I would know how to love you
Thought I’d know how

Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise
Yeah all you hear is white noise
Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise

Flowers dying in the kitchen, but I don’t wanna throw ’em away
Petals fall like chips of paint, all the colour stripped away
You keep saying we can change but you won’t even look my way…

Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise
Yeah all you hear is white noise
Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise
Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise
Yeah all you hear is white noise
Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise

Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise
Yeah all you hear is white noise
Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise
Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise
Yeah all you hear is white noise
Please don’t waste your voice on us if all you hear is white noise
