(first time guitar only, then drums)

Waiting for the break of day, searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky, giving up I close my eyes
Sitting cross-legged on the floor, 25 or 6 to 4


Staring blindly into space, getting up to splash my face
Wanting just to stay awake, wondering how much I can take
Should I try to do some more, 25 or 6 to 4



Feeling like I ought to sleep, spinning room is sinking deep
Searching for something to say, waiting for the break of day
25 or 6 to 4, 25 or 6 to 4
