Asleep

I know who I'll be, don't know if you see
I'll start like a seed, I'll grow like a tree
You'll hang your love from my branches and leaves
Just watch me

When the bough breaks, your baby will fall
You'll sit by the phone, you'll wait for my call
If I seem a little rattled
Just rock me

Out of all of the infinite things I could be
I'd like to believe that I'd like to believe
And I'd love to believe I'm alive and I'm free
But I'm not
I'm asleep
I'm asleep

I'm the person you'd be if you ever were me
Perfection in construction, a little incomplete
I get what I want and I want you to try
And stop me

Out of all of the infinite things I could be
I'd like to believe that I'd like to believe
And I'd love to believe I'm alive and I'm free
But I'm not
I'm asleep
I'm asleep

I'm a little disillusioned, I'm a little frail
Everything's raw and it hurts to inhale
Maybe this is over and over with me
Or maybe this is just a different dream

Out of all of the infinite things I could be
I'd like to believe that I'd like to believe
And I'd love to believe I'm alive and I'm free
But I'm not
I'm asleep
I'm asleep

Out of all of the infinite things I could be
I'd like to believe that I'd like to believe
And I'd love to believe I'm alive and I'm free
But I'm not
