about

I had many friends in the club scene who drank, smoked, or did other things that were bad for them. I don't do any of those things. Sometimes doing those things gets them into trouble... really bad trouble. Other times they just treat me badly when they are "under the influence". And so, I worry about them...
And now, in some cases, I miss them.

lyrics

I could be here and I could be alone
I could call you when I wake up in the morning
I could pray that you answer the phone
(you) should be awake but maybe still snoring
I know that you partied last night
I know that we got in a fight
I don't really care who is right
I just don't ever want to wake up and be
Morning You. Grouchy in the Morning You, Hung-over in the Morning You, strungout in the Morning You
I don't know why you mess with that shit
you tell me it's safe and you are exploring
can you get home after too many hits?
You could have died, yet I am "so boring"?
I don't believe in the drinking
I don't believe in the smoking
I don't believe in the toking
I don't ever want to wake up and be
Morning you. Still drunk in the Morning You, Unkind words in the Morning You, never want to be Morning You
o (Your) personality is changing
o (it’s) like I don’t know you
o (Your) priorities rearranging
o Till you’re “(I) don’t know who”
 And it feels like I’m not in love with you
 (And) I’m glad I’m not waking up with you…
o I don’t like the morning you.
o I’m mourning what was you.
I'm so afraid to leave you alone
you're an adult but I am imploring
Couldn't you leave the tripping at home?
What is it that you find so rewarding?
I don't like you risking your life
even if you won't be my wife
I wouldn't want to live without you
But I'm afraid you won't wake up
and I'll be Mourning You.
What’s wrong with you? Hungover in the morning you?
Disappointment in the evening you? Never want to be Mourning You.
Warming up a jail cell, you? Laying in a ditch somewhere, you?
Wrapped around a phone pole, you? Laying in a casket, you?
