Waking Up - Eels

I don’t want nobody

I don’t need that shit

Nothing good ever came

From anytime I did

So what the fuck is going on here?

Tender-hearted love

I was always dreaming falsely

I must be waking up

Lovers come and lovers go

Ironically, so cold

Love wasn’t in the room

Two grifters, that was all

Morning sun, a sweet surprise

It’s finally looking up

The dream is over, done and dusted

Now I’m waking up

I don’t have any voice

You don’t have any choice

It’s best we get out of the way

Nothing new, but everything

Every day is grave

Anything can happen now

Nothing’s ever safe

So why don’t you just take my hand

And take a chance on love?

The day is here and I won’t blow it

I am waking up

And waking up next to you

Is all I really want
