Once a night
The bedroom light
Bleeds out from inside my window
Eyes white
I keep out of sight
The city’s just not pretty like it used to be

It’s always a nightmare
It’s never a dream
I promised we’d wait to kill the days between
They live in the heartbeat and sleep till the light is gone

Its been so long
Feels like pins and needles in my heart
So long
I can feel it tearing me apart

Till then
The left unsaid
Crawls in from outside my window
Hands red
Cold as the dead
pity they’re not pretty like they used to be

It’s always a nightmare
It’s never a dream
I promised we’d wait to kill the days between
They live in the heartbeat and sleep till the light is gone

Its been so long
Feels like pins and needles in my heart
So long
I can feel it tearing me apart

It’s never a whisper
It’s always a scream
I promised we’d wait to kill the time between
They live in the heartbeat and sleep till the light is gone

Its been so long
Feels like pins and needles in my heart
So long
I can feel it tearing me apart
