Progress Lyrics by Sparrows and Crows

Sparrows and Crows

2009

[Verse 1]
I wake up still asleep
Stumble through a hidden heap
I look for anything
Pertaining to you and me
Something no one else can see
It's what wasn't meant to be
I don't know why I insist
On pursuing someone like this
I guess I'll go back to bed
And let good thoughts run through my head
I will dream of many things
That I like and that like me
Dream of things so Heavenly
Even I can barely see

[Verse 2]
And I will build myself a life
Beautiful, unseen
By anybody but me
And I wouldn't want it any other way
What do you suggest I do
In your absence
I have not another choice
At least one that makes any kind of sеnse

[Verse 3]
Now I have becomе restless
I awake to night
Has it become winter since
I turned off those lights
Can you tell me where to find
What I'm searching for?
It is bothering me that
I can't find the door
Let me in and shut me up
Anyway you want
Tell me the secret others found
And is it a haunt?
I have yet to find this thing
Whatever it may be
Perhaps I had it early on
But lost it out at sea

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
It's barely evening out
And it is dark as midnight
Where has that sun gone?
Where is its light?
Minutes pass just like hours
The seconds are even worse
Each takes its sweet time to tick
Sometimes they move in reverse

[Verse 5]
You bide your time
And I pass mine
Awaiting your reply
And now to myself I must lie
I don't know why I bother
I'm just torturing myself
I will just go back to sleep
And this time nurse me back to health

[Verse 6]
For you see I have been sick
But this time it will not stick
It will be gone by daylight
For you see I'm gonna fight

[Verse 7]
How can you justify
What you have done?
I don't know where you were
Nor do I want to
Call me old fashioned
Call me sincere
Now my love I must ration
For I have little every year

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 8]
I like when someone does
What they say they're gonna do
I don't like someone who
Bails for an offer that's new
That's not what I'd ever do
To someone as cool as you
Call me dumb
Call me a fool
You used me just like a tool
