Meet Me at the Horizon

No, I don't need a friend. No, I don't need a lover
Some nights the darkness is sweeter than others
Just me and my thoughts, no counting sheep
When the absence of light doesn't mean that I sleep

I lie in my bed and I think of the sky
And I wonder what happens right after we die
Should I be afraid, will my troubles end
Does the whole process repeat again and again

Then the sun starts to wake, the trees start to yawn
And the dark of the night meets a glimpse of the dawn
The whole world's asleep, it's too dark to see
So I can lie here and feel like you're still next to me

Do I call you first or wait for you to call
Fever kicks in and my skin starts to crawl
Unnatural tension in my brain and my eyes
And the headache evolves when I straighten my spine

My blood runs too thick and my mind runs too deep
And the room breaks the silence when the house starts to creak
The windows are open to let in the wind
Oh, I could be the sky if I could only give in

Then the sun starts to wake, the trees start to yawn
And the dark of the night meets a glimpse of the dawn
The whole world's asleep, it's too dark to see
So I can lie here and feel like you're still next to me, so

Meet me at the horizon
Oh won't you
Meet me at the horizon

No, I don't need a friend. No, I don't need a lover
Some nights the darkness cuts deeper than others
Just me and my thoughts in that bed all alone
When the dawning of day brings a sliver of hope

And the sun starts to wake and the trees start to yawn
The dark of the night finds relief in the dawn
The whole world's asleep, that is except me
And I lie here and miss the way things used to be, so

Meet me at the horizon
Oh won't you
Meet me at the horizon, oh
