Wake me when the day breaks
Show me how the sun shines
Tell me about your heartaches
Who could be so unkind?
Do you dream to touch me?
And smile down deep inside
Or could you just kill me?
It's hard to make up your mind, sometimes.

My angels, my devils, my thorn in my pride.
Are you wanting inspiration
You spill your secrets on me
Then you tell me with a whisper
Of things that will never be.
Do you hear me breathing?
Does it make you want to scream?
Did you ever like a bad dream?
Sometimes life is obscene.

My angels, my devils, my thorn in my pride.
Lover cover me with your sleep
Let your love light shine
Lover cover me with a good dream
Let your love light shine

    to me this song is about a one-night stand... maybe more. anyway it's another she-told-me-things-she-didn't-mean heartbreak kinda song. everybody's been there, you go out with the girl, feelings are sky-high at the start, but in the end you realize she did nothing more than led you on.("you tell me with a whisper of things that'll never be) "wake me when the daybreaks... show me how the sun shines," spent the night together but things that seemed so true last night mean a little less in the morning (when the booze wears off?) "tell me bout ur heartaches, who could be so unkind?" here chris shows he truly wants her to be happy/help her through her problems, but the feeling's not returned, "do you dream to touch me(also), or could ya just kill me?" that's mah' take on it, but maybe it's just cuz that's a road i've walked so damn many times
