Sometimes I wanna be a different person
I wanna know the feeling
If only for a minute
'Cause lately I've been running 'round in circles
You used to know me better
Somehow we're still together
And even if your heart beats next to mine
I feel like it's beating half the time
This could be the end of you and I
I'm running out of reasons why
Tied up when I'm awake so I got to be
Dancing in my sleep
Even when life gets the better of me
I just try to breathe
There's a lesson that I've got to learn
One day I will get my turn
But for right now I've got to be
Dancing in my sleep
Remember when you said that we were perfect?
But now it's complicated
The photographs have faded
It was always hard but we were worth it
I used to know you better
How come we're still together?
And even if your heart beats next to mine
I feel like it's beating half the time
This could be the end of you and I
I'm running out of reasons why
Tied up when I'm awake so I got to be
Dancing in my sleep
Even when life gets the better of me
I just try to breathe
There's a lesson that I've got to learn
One day I will get my turn
But for right now I've got to be
Dancing in my sleep
Letting go of the times that we wasted
Better days on the way I can taste it
There's a place we can go but it's out of reach
So I'm letting go of the lie, we can work it out
It was good for a while till it took us down
Now I'm done hanging on to the memories
Tied up when I'm awake so I got to be
Dancing in my sleep
Even when life gets the better of me
I just try to breathe
There's a lesson that I've got to learn
One day I will get my turn
But for right now I've got to be
Dancing in my sleep
Dancing in my sleep
But for right now I've got to be
Dancing in my sleep
