Adelaide (Lyric) by wilco
Iâm so tired of pretending
that everythingâs okay.
Maybe I could sleep through
Christmas again this year
and wake up on New Years Day.
Itâs all coming down now
that everythingâs okay.
Sometimes I go to sleep
in the snow with the hope
that Iâll wake up warm and safe.
Adelaide, Iâm coming home
and itâs been so long
since Iâve said a prayer
that I hope you can forgive what Iâve done.
Adelaide, Iâve got a bullet in my head
and my knees are weak.
Iâve taken everything I love
with a grain of salt
and spread it all through my wounds.
Iâm so tired of waking up
and thinking Iâm okay.
Maybe I could be better
if I slept through another
South Pacific dream.
Safely coming down now
and everythingâs okay.
I woke up in the snow
again with nothing left
to hold me in place.
Adelaide, Iâm coming home
and itâs been so long
since Iâve said a prayer
that I hope you can forgive what Iâve done.
Adelaide, Iâve got a picture in my head
and my will is weak.
Iâve taken everything she loved
with an endless weight
thatâs moved my wounds to scar.
