lyrics

I wake up and stare at the skies of Toronto
Though it feels like I've never before.
I take the elevator down to the ground floor
And walk straight out the front door.
I take out my keys and unlock my Mercedes
And step out on to the road.
I drive with my hand hanging out the window
With no mind to the wintery cold.

A foot on the gas and a foot on the brake
Oh, those pricks they'll never even know
I'm fading away
Oh, I'm dying for an escape
So, jar me awake

Only one more day alone
Only one more day
Only one more day alone
Only one more day
Til the angels take you home
Til the angels take you home

Arrive a few minutes late to the high rise
Where I work my hands to the bone
I'm taking my breaks on the roofs of skyscrapers
Just staring at cars below
Too god damn scared to let go

A foot on the ledge and a foot o'er the edge
Oh, those pricks they'll never even know
I'm fading away
Oh, I'm dying for an escape
So, jar me awake.
