Nocturnal


Well, she's lying in our bed
Sweating, staring at the ceiling
I know her worried head is aching
I know the cause is me

I could leave the bathroom light on
For better dreams tonight
My stability, my luxury, my life

And I won't go, neither will you
Turn off the phone, let's sleep till two

Your sad eyes take and own me
Words are unnecessary
Grip the back of your neck and slowly
Move till it all becomes alright

I wake up in a cold sweat
Got a bone to pick with reality
Take a deep breath and lay back down
Wearing my badge of infamy

Change the bulb in the nightlight
'Cause it flickered, flickered and died
Repeat the words you're not alone to self three times

And hit the light, my aim is true
Turn off the phone, let's sleep till two

Your sad eyes take and own me
Words are unnecessary
Grip the back of your neck and slowly
Move till it all becomes alright

Let the fighting words lie
Let the candlelight die
Let the sun come up
Let the saline dry

Let the fighting words lie
Let the candlelight die
Let the sun come up
Let the saline dry

Let the fighting words lie
Let the candlelight die
Let the sun come up
Let the saline dry

Let the fighting words lie
Let the candlelight die
Let the sun come up

Your sad eyes take and own me
Words are unnecessary
Grip the back of your neck and slowly
Move till it all becomes alright
Alright

Let the fighting words lie
Let the candlelight die
Let the sun come up
Let the saline dry
