Running from the truth for all my life
Wake up darling, wake up darling
Now I’m too tired to tell more lies
Wake up darling, wake up darling
I never lied to you and I never laid blame
It was my own fault for what I became
The flies on the ceiling and the dogs in the cane
Wake up darling, wake up darling
Noon as dark as midnight
The judge is down the road
Now walk with me, just a little while
I’m too weak on my own
How long have I been this way?
Wake up darling, wake up darling
Always said I’d trade the rest of my days
Wake up darling, wake up darling
Can’t take you with me when I leave here
One more time I need you near
One more walk through the pines, my dear
Wake up darling, wake up darling
Noon as dark as midnight
The judge is down the road
Now walk with me, just a little while
I’m too weak on my own
Noon as dark as midnight
The judge is down the road
Now walk with me, just a little while
Now walk with me, just a little while
I’m too weak on my own
