Dan Deacon - Sat by a Tree lyrics

I look back it had been a long night
Sitting by the fire soon it will be light
It may only last a moment
But a moment can last a lifetime in your mind
I find it's on the telly
What are they trying to sell me?

Wake up! Time's gone by
I'm falling down every night
I walked off sat by a tree
It had captured my attention
When it started asking me
What would you cast into existence
If you contained the persistence to unwind?
I find it's on the telly
What are they trying to sell me?

Wake up! Time's gone by
I'm falling down every night

It's a short life and sadly unrehearsed
If when I die, if you think of me
Think of my best first
But it is out of my control
What this world wants there to be
Told of me in time
Wake up in the morning and I'm running
Running past the Rally's but I'm starving
I want to see the trains in the sun if I can
Lay down in the grass after St anne's
I find it's on the telly
What are the trying to sell me?
I don't wanna

Wake up! Time's gone by i'm falling down
Every night

Wake up time's gone by
I'm falling down every night
