I knew you'd wait
till after midnight
To call me, you and I
have always been scared of the light

I knew you'd wanna see me
But you'd need an excuse
It's too hard to be seen clearly
I was thinkin of one, too

But I was afraid that I
wouldn't last long enough to help
Either you'd break me down
Or I'd just do it to myself

I waited by the phone
I could hardly breathe
By the time I finally heard your voice
I'd forgotten what I need

I was in deep
You were in disbelief
You had me so wide awake
Now I just want to sleep

I don't know if we're in love
Or just scared of real life
