The Wake Of Your Life Lyrics - Mew

I wanna carve this moment out right 

I wanna leave us all in doubt 

At least I'm better than last week 

This one ordeal 

I have to go for a while 

I wanna slip out there again 

Would play nice with you 

Write down for me 

What you got is gone 

Just getting through 

Each day the same 

Same as always 

Never meant to forget 

Ever let to believe 

Ooh, they don't know 

They don't know 

What fools are we 

An elixir of light 

You're reciting the words 

Ooh, they don't know 

They don't know you 

In the wake of your life 

It comes back again 

You will see them in the end 

And the story in her eyes 

Was told a thousand times 

You just never cared to listen 

I got a picture of you two laughing 

And I can tell which one is you 

It's in the shadows of your mouth 

It's in my dream 

I found you out 

Same as always 

Never meant to forget 

Ever let to believe 

Ooh, they don't know 

They don't know 

What fools are we 

An elixir of light 

You're reciting the words 

Ooh, they don't know 

They don't know you 

In the wake of your life 

It comes back again 

You will see them in the end 

And the story in her eyes 

Was told a thousand times 

You just never cared to listen 

I the wake of your life 

It comes back again 

You will see them in the end 

And the story in her eyes 

Was told a thousand times 

You just never cared to listen
