"Stay Awake" Lyrics

She's sitting alone
Watching the clock
All she hears is breathing
In and out and in and out and in
She isn't aware
Of much anymore
But her heart's still beating
In and out and in and out and in
Outside looking back
We can see she needed a friend
Could no one have known
This was going to be the end
I could've told her to stay, stay awake
Won't you please just take a minute
Don't go, you don't even know
How many people are going to miss you
She's waiting 'til one
She picks up the gun
Plays with the safety
In and out and in and out and in
She's unplugged the phone
Now there's nobody home
No one can hear her
Crying, slowly counting down from ten
Inside I am left toiling over words she spoke
Finding meaning in every question
Every joke
I could've told her to stay, stay awake
Won't you please just take a minute
Don't go, you don't even know
How many people are going to miss you
Please stay, stay awake
Won't you please just take a minute
Don't go, you don't even know
How many people are going to miss you
We miss you
(Don't go away)
I'm standing alone
Over your stone
Can you hear me breathing
In and out and in and out and in
