I fell asleep and woke up screaming
I knew that I had something real

You don't have to tell me, I feel guilty enough already
And I'm tempted by digital record
I'm scared to death of what we may do next
My muscles have a deadly memory

This is, this as good, as good as I will ever be
I'm sorry if I'm not what you're looking for
'Cause I fell asleep and woke up screaming
I knew that I had something real

We all make some promises we have no business making,
But I gave you what you can only give one time
Let's be honest with ourselves,
This shouldn't come as a surprise
But I won't forget you,
You know I can't forget, forget you

This is, this as good, as good as I will ever be
I'm sorry if I'm not what you're looking for,
'Cause I fell asleep and woke up screaming
I knew that I had something real

I fell asleep and woke up screaming
I knew that something had to change

Baby, you can leave your clothes on
Let's make love like we're not allowed to
Let's reclaim the innocence of losing innocence, of losing innocence
This is something I have to do

This is, this as good, as good as I will ever be
I'm sorry if I'm not what you're looking for,
'Cause I fell asleep and woke up screaming
I knew that I had something real
'Cause I fell asleep and woke up screaming
I knew that I had something, something real
