"Sustainer" lyrics

Wake up wake up
Too upset wake up wake up
Too upset wake up wake up

And I know that you've got your stinger
And your serpent tongue's out to tame us
But you're down in the mud, the painter
And the song will be my sustainer

And I know what you want but I don't know if I can give it back
And I know what you want but I don't know if I can give it back

But it's not what you think
It's not what you see
Hopeless isn't a place for you and me
Hopeless isn't a place I can be

Wake up wake up
Wake up wake up

And you think that you've got a savior
But you're falling back on retainer
And I know that you want to blame her
But the song will be my sustainer

Wake up wake up
Wake up wake up
Wake up wake up

And I know what you want but I don't know if I can give it back
And I know what you want but I don't know if I can give it back

I can give it back
I can give it back
I can give it back

I can give it back
I can give it back
I can give it back
