lyrics

Lay me down for awhile alone.
Please don't walk too loud.
Don't let me know you're around.

Take me down to the level where all your dreams are.
Listen close to the tremors, the hearts we've all known.

'Cause it's true, I love you, but you made me do this.
Don't want to, it just hurts to lose it.
Forever, I just can't imagine.
Whatever if I sleep still again.

Please just tell me everything that I've been saying, can I believe in myself?
Just remind me there's no point in keeping secrets.
Can you tell I'm freaked out?

Hold me close, so forgetful I'm wishing I was.
Test me out.
Save another once I'm all washed out.

'Cause it's true, I love you, but you made me do this.
Don't want to, it just hurts to lose it.
Forever, I just can't imagine.
Whatever if I sleep still again.

'Cause that look in your eyes says that we're still alive, but I know that it's not worth it.
I just wish that I knew how to think like myself in these moments, like I'm homesick.
Never know what to say, or if things'll be okay, but it's going, and I'm for it.
Full of life and excitement, it's nice, you should try it.
I could die here.

I loved you, but you made me do this.
I want to, it just hurts to lose it.
Forever, I just can't imagine.
Whatever, let me sleep still again.
