[Intro: Mica Tenenbaum]
Second sleep is calling out to me
If I don’t wake up, oh
I have the sense not to make a mess
I fall in love just to hurt myself
Mm-mm, mm-mm

[Pre-Chorus: Mica Tenenbaum]
Time to toughen up
Gotta get some help
Sun’s coming up
Put the coffee on and shutter on up the doors

[Chorus: Mica Tenenbaum]
Second sleep is calling out to me
If I don’t wake up, it’s all been a bad dream
Yeah, the world’s waking up, it’s not the proto-days
No sleeping in
Call the cops, drug me up, send the men off to war
Second sleep is calling out to me (Ah-oh)
If I don’t wake up, it’s all been a bad—

[Verse 1: Mica Tenenbaum]
Understanding (That love is so demanding)
In the city (Your love is when you’re winning, yeah)

[Refrain: Mica Tenenbaum & Matthew Lewin]
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, ooh

[Chorus: Mica Tenenbaum]
(Second sleep is calling out to me)
(If I don’t wake up, it’s all been a bad dream)
I’m suffering, do you feel this cold?
I’ll warm you up, when we get to hell

Second sleep is calling out to me
If I don’t wake up, I’ll see you in my dreams
It’s not natural
Yeah and I really need some help
Oh, take it back
Tear the city down, don’t build it up anymore
Second sleep is calling out to me
If I don’t wake up, it’s all been—

[Verse 2: Mica Tenenbaum]
(Oh, shut up)
So far to get to where you are
Understanding (That love is so demanding)
Oh, in the city (Your love is when you’re bleeding)

[Outro: Mica Tenenbaum & Matthew Lewin]
Oh, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-ah
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-ah
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-ah
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la
