[Verse 1] I saw the bottom Felt a sinking feeling She fed me words She wasn’t even thinking On & on, say nothing's wrong again [Verse 2] Held up, repeating all our lines, fake blue skies Painted a picture out of words, turned white lies On & on tell me nothing's wrong again Nothing’s wrong again [Chorus] Too close to know, we were playing fiction Living in a distant daydream Too close to know, everything was fading Water we could wade in got too deep (To stand found out firsthand that I was) Too close to know, we were playing fiction Living in a distant daydream [Verse 3] I know the script isn’t changing Although the person you play is Your role - the girl in the tower But your sweet tooth turned sour [Pre-Chorus] Wake me up, 'cause I’m lost in a daydream (The truth, it cuts like an axe to an oak tree) [Chorus] Too close to know, we were playing fiction Living in a distant daydream Too close to know, everything was fading Water we could wade in got too deep (To stand found out firsthand that I was) Too close to know, we were playing fiction Living in a distant daydream [Bridge] Wake me up, I’m lost in a daydream (Truth, it cuts like an axe to an oak tree) Wake me up, I’m lost in a daydream Too close to know, we were playing fiction Living in a distant daydream Too close to know, everything was fading [Chorus] Too close to know, we were playing fiction Living in a distant daydream Too close to know, everything was fading Water we could wade in got too deep (To stand found out firsthand that I was) Too close to know, we were playing fiction Living in a distant daydream
