The thing that keeps you sound asleep is exactly what keeps me up at night.
There’s something in your closet. Too afraid to look, afraid of what you’ll find.
Keep saying whatever you need to say to stay sane.
But when the same old dose just isn’t enough you’ll need a new drug to feel the same.
I’m constantly dwelling on those second thoughts, the things I lack.
Tired of feeling worthless. Just another grain of sand in the hourglass.
You’ll watch me slip right through the cracks.
(New pain, old wounds)
I’ll watch you stab yourself in the back.
(All skin, no bones)
Torture me like a nightmare.
I’ll tell myself it’s gonna be alright.
What keeps you sound asleep keeps me at night.
I’m flawed, obsessive, and self-engrossed. At least the life I live is a life I chose.
I can’t just slave away digging out my grave.
What keeps you sound asleep keeps me up at night.
There’s something in your closet. Too afraid to look, afraid of what you’ll find.
