I walk in and everybody looks at me
And all I wanna do is flee
But I suck it up
And walk in quietly
But I feel at home on the back row
With the faces that I know and need
As the choir sings
Peace in the valley
And every time I look into my window
There’s always people
Trashing up the living room
Only spewing doom and gloom
But every time I spark a conversation
They only seem to lie
To lie
But then I turn to them and I say gently
Please don’t wake me
I’d rather be to myself this evening
Believe me
And all my friends are up on the roof
Playing songs from some band I don’t care about
But that’s okay with me
If they just let me be
Please don’t wake me up
Please don’t wish me luck
I’m doing fine
Just my laptop and my mind
But then I turn to them and I say gently
Please don’t wake me
I’d rather be to myself this evening
Believe me
And all my friends are up on the roof
Playing songs from some band I don’t care about
But that’s okay with me
If they just let me be
