Sleeping With Giants (retitled)
"Don't try and tell me you've been looking at me.
Cuz I've been looking at you.
And I can read what you think. Yea.
Don't cut no corners when you're talking to me.
Like I don't know how it is,
But I can see it.
You've got no answers but you've got your concerns
About the people we see
And all the secrets we keep
I think about what you're expecting of me
Like you don't know how it is,
But I can see all of it.
We always have to wait
By the choice we had to make
You sold yourself so short,
Is this the way to carry on?
In the most unexpected places...
Don't try and tell me you've been thinking of us,
Cuz I will never believe you, now you're shit out of luck, yeah.
Don't cut no corners when you're talking at me.
Like you don't know how it is
But I can see all of it.
So that we always have to wait
By the choice we had to make
You sold yourself so short,
Is this the way to carry on?
In the most unexpected places...
I see...
We always have been caged
By the choices that we make.
You sold yourself so short.
Is that the way to carry on?
In the most unexpected places, I see changes.
In the most unexpected faces, I see changes.
We always have to wait
By the choices that we made.
You sold yourself so short,
Is this the way to carry on?
In the most unexpected places...
I see changes.
We always have been caged
By the choices that we made.
We sold ourselves so short.
Is this the way to carry on?"
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I'd like to introduce an upcoming star, the lead singer of Falling In Flames, a new cover band, Paigey!" William Beckett said into his Mic. God, if Autumn were here, she'd either kill me for going on stage with Will or maul him. But I did go on.
We hadn't met before this, Will and I. Pete told me to expect this, so I was just a little surprised that Will even knew my name. Sisky handed me his Mic and smiled. These guys seem cool. Good thing I'll be touring with them and not some group of stuck-up snobs.
"You guys will be seeing Paige and her band on tour with us and Fall Out Boy soon," Will said again. I seriously have never seen so many people looking at me. It was scary and exciting at the same time. Like sky diving when you have a fear of heights, right?
Sisky and Mike started into the next song, which led to me and Will joining in.
"I've noticed, people, they all have motives.
Different, yet all the same.
I fumble through every word that was spoken,
and I barely knew your name.
I'm tongue-tied, it runs through my blood and my insides;
Some things we can't escape.
But if we try, if we try, we can leave this behind.
It's been a lifetime, a lifetime we waited for.
A simple question, kid, "are you with me or not at all?"
Your eyes wide, always ahead of the curve type,
Quiet, and confident.
Oh, we stood there, awkward and youthful, we tangled;
A piece of my soul escaped.
Oh, we are restless and tired of sleeping with giants,
A modern mankind with their egos of fire and it seems like
It's been a lifetime, a lifetime we've waited for.
A simple question, kid, "are you with me or not at all?"
Are we wasting time or is it wasting us?
It's been a lifetime waiting for now, now.
Well, you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way before you fold.
It's been a lifetime, a lifetime I've been waiting for.
A simple question, kid, "are you with me or not at all?"
It's been a lifetime, a lifetime we waited for.
I need an answer, kid, you're either with me or not at all, no, no.
Are we wasting time or is it wasting us?
It's been a lifetime, a lifetime, a lifetime, lifetime, yeah.
Well, you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way.
Son you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way,
you've got to find a way before you fold."
Everyone started clapping and cheering.
"Once again, Paige!" Will said. I smiled up at him and handed Sisky back his Mic then made my way back to Pete on the side.
"If I thought your recording was dazzling, that was life-killing!" he said.
"Huh?" I asked.
"You were beyond awesome!!" he yelled with a smile on his face. I smiled and blushed as he put his arms around me. "Girl, you know you drive me crazy." he said. MORE blushing. He put his fore head against mine and looked me in the eyes. Then he kissed me, and I was on cloud nine.
"You really dazzle me," he said after pulling back. Just more blushing. "You, ah. You wanna be my girlfriend?" he asked. I just smiled and nodded.
