if I put a foot wrong
you could laugh out loud, like you've been laughing to yourself
all along
such lies, sweet hush of lullabies
in a small town loose talk it kind of gets around

I must reject all that I once believed
I've been deceived
behind my back
I am quietly and suredly under attack

downsized I guess I shouldn't be surprised
two faced the time has come to be replaced
betrayal, tiny minds
something sinister's going on behind

you were my downfall
see me crawl, one and all
if I could only be a fly on the wall
nothing is clear
so sincere in my ear
you look so pretty when you sneer
behind the smile, sweet child
you were grinding your teeth all the while
betrayed, low grade
always delayed
did you ever have the slightest intention to stay?

This face in my dreams seizes my guts
He floods me with dread
Soaked in soul
He swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him
Moon spilling in
And I wake up alone

If I was my heart
I'd rather be restless
The second I stop the sleep catches up and I'm breathless
This ache in my chest
As my day is done now
The dark covers me and I cannot run now
My blood running cold
I stand before him
It's all I can do to assure him
When he comes to me
I drip for him tonight
Drowning in me we bathe under blue light

His face in my dreams seizes my guts
He floods me with dread
Soaked in soul
He swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him
Moon spilling in
And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone
