lyrics

I'm lying here staring at the ceiling
Singing the songs that have already been sung
The same old tune that's been repeating
Had the same old guitar now my fingers have grown numb

My mama's cooking something in the kitchen
She calls me in for dinner and it smells like home
But I'm lying here staring at the ceiling
I've got so much to say and it's right on the tip of my tongue
Oh right on the tip of my tongue

I'm lying here staring at the ceiling
Singing the songs that have already been sung
The same old drum that's been beating
It's the same old song, I wanna turn it all down

My papa says that I'm too young to worry
He tells me that i'll always have a hand to hold
But i'm lying here staring at the ceiling
I've got so much to say and it's right on the tip of my tongue
Oh right on the tip of my tongue
Right on the tip of my tongue
Right on the tip of my tongue

I turn my head to look again and wonder what's outside that open door
Talking back to voices in my head from way back when
I'm growing tired of this waiting, wanting more

I'm lying here staring at the ceiling
Singing the songs that have already been sung
Thinking I could sing something different
So I open up a book and start writing it down

Here's one about how i'm healing
Here's one about discovering love
This one's about all my wishes
I've got so much to say and it's right on the tip of my tongue
Oh right on the tip of my tongue
Right on the tip of my tongue

I turn my head to look again and wonder what's outside that open door
Talking back to voices in my head from way back when
I'm growing tired of this waiting, wanting more

I'm lying here staring at the ceiling
Singing the songs that have already been sung
The same old tune that's been repeating
Had the same old guitar now my fingers have grown numb

My mama's cooking something in the kitchen
She calls me in for dinner and it smells like home
But I'm lying here staring at the ceiling
I've got so much to say and it's right
