Philip Labes Every Morning I'm Born
[Verse 1]
Where is she? She's not here
Halfway light, pillow tear
But she's gone, oh, that's right
Hello dark, take me night
[Verse 2]
Had the dream, what'd she say?
Fictional or memory
Now the tome slips away
Can't hear ghosts in the day
[Chorus]
Every morning I'm born
Who am I? Can't remember
In that place between places
There's no more pain
Where the music is hidden
And time's an illusion
Is it God that I see
Or a misfiring brain?
[Verse 3]
Plastic teeth by the bed
Put the plugs in my head
Lock my eyes from the light
DisappŠµar every night
[Verse 4]
TherŠµ's the rub, are you gone?
Do you dream from beyond?
We could meet if you do
But I doubt that it's true
[Chorus]
Every morning I'm born
Who am I? Can't remember
In that place between places
There's no more pain
Where the music is hidden
And time's an illusion
Is it you that I see
Or a misfiring brain?
[Post-Chorus]
I should sit on the bed and feel my feet on the floor
I can't live in a dream, but I can't live here anymore
[Verse 5]
6 AM, panic blast
Time for school, missed a class
Oh, that's right, have a laugh
That was long in the past
[Verse 6]
I should rise, meet the day
Things to do, bills to pay
Sorry love, I can't stay
You can go, I'm okay
[Chorus]
Every morning I'm born
Who am I? Can't remember
In that place between places
There's no more pain
Where the music is hidden
And time's an illusion
Is it God that I see
Or a misfiring brain?
