Prompt / Lyrics
So hard to sleep on Sunday morning Waiting for the sun to rise She’s underneath those tattered blankets Wiping the sleep out of her eyes She wakes up cold on Sunday morning It feels like no one cares at all Twisted reflection in the mirror looks away there’s no mirror there at all It’s always cold on Sunday morning Waiting for the nurse to call She stares into the light realizes she is still herself Af-ter-all A crooked smile on all the strangers as they do the day to day A pale blue sky keeps reflecting all the sadness Waiting for someone to make it go away She cries and draws the shades til Monday frustrated no one understands She cries out loud Won’t someone please help me Af-ter-all (Solo) It’s just another cozy Sunday she’s locked inside her prison cell Waiting for someone To save her from this madness No gift of love to save her from this hell (Key change) (Please take it all) O please take it all (Take it all away) Someone take it all (Take it all away) O please take it all away Breakdown Hold your head up high x 5 I won’t give up, you don’t give up I won’t give up, you don’t give up I won’t give up, you don’t dive up I won’t give up, you don’t give up (Instrumental) So hard to sleep on Sunday morning to early for the sun to rise She’s underneath those tattered blankets Wiping the sleep out of her eyes She’s walking out the door on Monday Mommy’s come to take her home She’s lost a thousand days just waiting for the sunrise Mommy has come But shes still all alone (Don’t give up) x8
