Waking Up Is Hard To Do

by The Blow Monkeys

Lyrics
Waking up is hard to do
Waking up is hard to do

You can spend your life looking out for something
Standing right in front of you
I couldn't see the wood for trees
Buried by a thousand leaves

I was out of my mind, running blind
Crawling on my hands and knees
Crawling on my hands and knees

Waking up is hard to do
Waking up is hard to do
When the feeling come and your race is run
And you don't know how you're gonna get through
Waking up is hard to do
Waking up is hard to do

When you're all alone and your only friend is your mobile phone
Paying out for something that I did not need

Trying to be something that I could not be
Running hard to somewhere that I could not find
And I'm still paying off the debt for the hurt I left behind

Waking up is hard to do
Waking up is hard to do

You can spend your life looking in the mirror
Never knowing who is who
Never knowing who is who

Telephone riders
Stealing my time
Two-time fighters
Backroom sliders
Robbing us blind
Telephone riders
Coming down the line
Backroom sliders

Paying out for something that I did not need
Trying to be something that I could not be
Running hard to somewhere that I could not find
And I'm still paying off the debt for the pain I left behind

Waking up is hard to do
Waking up is hard to do
You can spend your life looking out for something
Standing right in front of you
Standing right in front of you
