Emily, you only see the worst in me -
And I could not compete with you.
Not even if I wanted to.
Everyone could see that there was something wrong.
I know you're only hanging on -
I know you're only hanging on.
Emily, oh why are you becoming me -
If only you could see yourself.
Instead of seeing someone else.
Tell me why
It's easier to tell a lie?
I know you're never satisfied -
I know you're never satisfied.
Won't you stay awake -
Stay awake with me?
Won't you stay awake-
Stay awake with me?
No understanding -
It's more than nothing.
Give me an ending. Just give me something.
Float through my head.
When the night fades into the night's calm.
It's a lifetime -
It's a lifetime.
And I could not compete with you.
Not even if I wanted to.
Everyone could see that there was something wrong.
I know you're only hanging on -
I know you're only hanging on.
If only you could see yourself.
Instead of seeing someone else.
Tell me why
It's easier to tell a lie?
I know you're never satisfied -
I know you're never satisfied.
Stay awake with me?
Won't you stay awake-
Stay awake with me?
It's more than nothing.
Give me an ending. Just give me something.
Float through my head.
When the night fades into the night's calm.
It's a lifetime -
It's a lifetime.
