  • Run around the spiral it's our choice now,
    Up or down, days can seem so long
    Holy ghost, I'm living with your voice now
    But tonight, I'm sleeping with my television on
    Come tomorrow they're be hell to pay and clouds across the sun

    You were right I've always been a sinner
    You were right I wasted all your time
    You said it all, "We drank to much at dinner."
    So tonight I'm sleeping with my television on
    Come tomorrow they'll be hell to pay and clouds across the sun

    You and I baby we're a broken record
    Turn around we're making sound but only for the noise
    And what if I could live like this, but not forever
    And what if you could move the needle to a more forgiving song
    And what if this, was never really broken all along
    But for tonight, I'm sleeping with my television on

    I'm sleeping with my TV on
    Yeah I don't mind sleeping, not when there's flash and burn
    Your colors dance beneath my bedroom door
    Yeah I don't mind sleeping with my TV on

    With my TV on
    With my TV on
    With my TV on
    With my TV on, yeah

    Come tomorrow
    You're signaling the silence till the dawn Writer/s: ANDREW ROSS MCMAHON, JAREN JOHNSTON
