	Lyrics The summer is nervously waiting around Like a tourist who missed the last train out of town And lost in time it slowly stumbles away See the sunny attitudes blend With the growing surge of the northern wind And the chill on my heart seems determined to stay Why don't I just pull the covers over my head So I don't have to witness the coming of the dead Wake me up when the nightmare has gone Keeping time with the crystalline air A hasty nod and an icy stare From passersby who'd just as soon left long ago Desolation shatters the soul As goodwill enjoys a vanishing role And while He seems to care, He acts as if he'd rather not know Why don't I just pull the covers over my head So I don't have to witness the coming of the dead Wake me up when it's time to move on As the heat sterilizes Shall the cold purify Icy grip paralyzes Nothing to nullify Standing on the precipice of time An angry shove takes you over the line You never see the bottom and you never stop feeling the fall
