I got to sleep with the lights on,
in my dream you're coming back
You're the one I set my sights on,
without you the cards are stacked
Sleep, I had to sleep for
Sleep, it made back my self esteem
Workin', workin', livin', livin',
breathin', breathin', eatin', eatin'
Used to face life without fear,
Let the wrong people get near,
an d they lead you astray
I don't wanna be a lost boy
Can you remind me how to find joy?
Get me settled in my skin
You got me feeling like an old boy
And it's wearing kind of thin
You set me up just like a decoy
And I took it on the chin
Up to late with the lights on,
All I'm hearing is a night song,
the only words are please come back
Give me back my self esteem
Girl, my world is shutting down
You let me think I was an icon
Now you're gone, I'm just a clown
Work it, and live it, and breathe it
I don't wanna be a lost boy
Can you remind me how to find joy?
Keep me settled in my skin
You got me feelin' like an old boy
And it's weary kind of thing
You set me up just like a de coy
And I took it on the chin
