When I waken, and I'm achin', time for sleepin', yeah
When I'm sayin', "time to go" and, "I've been hurtin'", yeah
When I'm layin', I'm still tryin', concentratin' on dyin', yeah
You're right as rain, but you're all to blame
Agreed, my crime's the same
My sins I'll claim, give you back shed pain
Go find a place for own shame
So you can deal with this thing unreal
No one made you feel any hurt, yeah
Body's movin', only provin', no one needed to move
Still believin', yet mistaken, all God's children, yeah
And I must say, I was stupid, selfishly she consumed, yeah
And you must change patterns all we trained
Or n'er regain peace you seek
Now you hear me, for the things I see
Yeah, I believe in inner peace, yeah
Throw out, blow up, hold in
Show fine, no signs, grow blind
When I'm sayin', "time to go" and, "I've been hurtin'", yeah
When I'm layin', I'm still tryin', concentratin' on dyin', yeah
You're right as rain, but you're all to blame
Agreed, my crime's the same
My sins I'll claim, give you back shed pain
Go find a place for own shame
So you can deal with this thing unreal
No one made you feel any hurt, yeah
Body's movin', only provin', no one needed to move
Still believin', yet mistaken, all God's children, yeah
And I must say, I was stupid, selfishly she consumed, yeah
And you must change patterns all we trained
Or n'er regain peace you seek
Now you hear me, for the things I see
Yeah, I believe in inner peace, yeah
Throw out, blow up, hold in
Show fine, no signs, grow blind

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

this is one of my favorite alice songs. this is one of laynes best. he is once again completely consumed by regret and sorrow. he also admits that he is the only one who has caused himself pain. he thinks about his pain constantly "now you hear me for the things i've seen. yeah i believe in inner peace". once again, he feels isolated, so he keeps everything bottled up "grow out, blow up, hold in, show fine, no signs, grow blind". he is degrading from within.
