The Secret Life Of Me (Alt Version)

(Album: Greatest Hits - 2021)

When I fall asleep at night
I wish my brain could sneak away
Increase my pace and hop the gate
And travel to another plane
First I'd find my evil twin
Then I will make best friends with it
We'd both hate the same things
And waste some hours talking shit
We could write some songs
Joel would be impressed
We complete each other's lines
Because our stupid brains connect
But because that
Our serotonin would crash
At approximately the same time
And we both would need a nap
Goddamn

Sunbathe
Looking like a Sunday
Wishing for a someday
I could run away like that
Now I think I need a life or maybe 9
'Cause I feel like I'm running out of time, yea
Someday maybe on a Sunday
I can sit and sun bathe
I could run away like that
Now I think I need a life or maybe 9
'Cause I'm feeling like I'm running out of time

I've seen a place I'd like to stay
Nirvana, but it's far away
Yeah, it might take a couple planes
And parachutes for my escape
Jump face-first into the sun
We've got the same sunglasses on
My solar eyes grow polarized
But the blinding light is so much fun
Maybe paradise
Is somewhere deep inside
The halls or walls
Where I've spent all my time
Building my whole life
Where I feel alright
'Cause I never wanna leave the secret life of me
The secret life of me

Sunbathe
Looking like a Sunday
Wishing for a someday
I could run away like that
Now I think I need a life or maybe 9
'Cause I feel like I'm running out of time, yea
Someday maybe on a Sunday
I can sit and sun bathe
I could run away like that
Now I think I need a life or maybe 9
'Cause I'm feeling like I'm running out of time

I feel like I'm running out of time
Real life never feels like it's mine
So I'll dissociate until I'm fine
Until I'm fine
I keep my eyes wide shut
Live a secret life for fun
Away from anyone and everyone

And someday I will Sunbathe
Looking like a Sunday
Wishing for a someday
I could run away like that
Now I think I need a life or maybe 9
'Cause I feel like I'm running out of time, yea
Someday maybe on a Sunday
I can sit and sun bathe
I could run away like that
Now I think I need a life or maybe 9
'Cause I'm feeling like I'm running out of time
