I'm Not Here - Bedhead

If I could sleep for just a week

I know you’d be calling me

Then i could tell you what it means

Not to hear from you

Was it only hours ago

When I was talking with you

Trying to tell you what to do

Or is my memory that weak

Did nothing I ever say to you

No way I ever thought of you

Mean or do anything at all

And you’re not defenceless or poor loose

It’s just a ringing in your ear

Just a dead hum that doesn’t go anywhere

Sometimes it’s me talking

Other times it’s me listening

But it is never both at once

When I was mean i never meant

Everything that I told you

Which is why I sometimes wish

I could take it all back

If I could sleep for just a week

And wake up just before it all begins again

I’ll know what I’m here for
