Half awake
It's 3am and you're up again
Dragging you coat
Dragging me over the coal
Fist to the wall
I would rather be
Someone else's fool
Past the gate
The sirens fading off again
It never ends
When you ain't got friends
And you just can't wait
'Til it's light
I would rather be
Someone else's fool
Darling can't you see
I've done it all for you
I bite my tongue
Thank God it's done
But I wish you well
But I would rather be
Someone else's fool
Darling can't you see
That it's true
But you won't pick up the phone
Maybe someone else could see through it all
I would rather be someone else's fool
