"Cue" lyrics

"Cue"

You were leaning on your cue
And we were watching
We were friends, but I don't know
And there was something in the air in the basement
With the smoke, and
Beneath the street, a switch was thrown

You were reading from some
Disjointed poems
In a book you found on the road
It all seemed beside the point
Because we knew where we were going
And like your cigarette, we glowed

Now you wake me up
In the middle of the night
You can wake me up
With a phone light shining
You can wake me up
Before the movie ends
You can wake me up
Over and over and over and over again

Oh, you can wake me up
At the edge of the morning
You wake me up
No knock, no warning
You wake me up
Usher in the light like a friend
You wake me up
Over and over and over and over again

You were leaning on the stove
And we were watching
Acting helpless as we do
You made something out of nothing
Like some magic
But it's no fakery, it's true
