Lyrics Wye Oak – Take It In

Half the day awake, half again asleep.
I am left alone with dreams.

I wouldn’t care if I…
I wouldn’t care if you…

Do you never ask because I’ll never tell?
We are both the same: unwell.

But how much would you ask, and what did you expect
Of what it is that we have left?

Oh baby, you’re a child
You fall asleep and I get wild.

I turn to smoke when you need air.
I’m sorry, baby, I don’t care.

Do you never ask because you know I’ll say
«You’re the only one? Please stay.»

But you’re not the only one, and you know it’s only fair.
When you close your eyes, who’s there?

You’re a baby, you’re a child.
You fall asleep and I get wild.

I turn to smoke when you need air.
I’m sorry, baby, I don’t care.

You’re my only, you’re my bride.
I said «I love you», said «You’re mine.»

I take it back. I’ll take it in,
’til I never need air again.

I take it back. I’ll take it in,
’til I never need air again.
