Briefly - Better Than Ezra

Wake me up

Slap my face

Draw me closer in

To your embrace

'Cause nobody wants to be

The butt of every joke

And nobody wants to be

The one to pull the rope

So you harden your shell

Slowly losing yourself

And now I'm close

But not touching

And I'm cold

But not freezing

And I'm only alive

Only alive

Briefly

Can you feel

Could you love

Are you further now

From where you started

I bet you do enough

Just to get by

Don't you

'Cause nobody wants to be

The butt of every joke

And nobody wants to be

The one who's full of hope

And a cop's light

Goes by

And the moon lights the night

And now I'm close

But not touching

And I'm cold

But not freezing

And I'm only alive

Only alive

Briefly

And you're a starlight that shines

For a moment in time

In time

In time

In time

And now I'm close

But not touching

And I'm cold

But not freezing

And I'm only alive

Only alive

Briefly

Briefly

Briefly

Briefly
