lyrics

I’ve been sleeping on the wrong side of the bed
Swapping stories with the voices I hear in my head
Cus I’m sick and I’m tired always uninspired, maybe it’s the way I’m wired
Losing sleep over everything I did not say

Nothing’s as intimidating as empty pages when all the phrases won’t come out

And everybody’s telling me that I’m in over my head
The devil’s on my shoulder saying “you can sleep when you’re dead”
Cus I’ve got better things to do
Than waste my nights dreaming of you

I played back every scene in my head
Like a Woody Allen film starring us instead
Where everything was so much better
When your mood won’t change with the weather but

Nothing’s quite as disappointing as conversation when expectations don’t pan out

I’ve had my chance, but time’s run out
I’d beg and plead scream and shout
But I’m too damn proud
I’m too damn proud

I tried my best but things don’t work out
It’s something I’m still down about
But I’m too damn proud
I’m too damn proud

Nothing’s quite as devastating as “I love you’s” that quickly turn to “I don’t cares”

And after it’s over
I won’t be falling backwards
(But all you ever do is leave)
