Before I Sleep

[Songtext zu „Before I Sleep“]

[Verse 1]
I watch you blowing smoke, turning right over
And I hope that you forgot that I once was an angel
The tiny lights are on, I think you forgot where I'm from
'Cause if I fell, I know your arms would push me further down
But still, I feel I'd never hit the ground

[Chorus]
Boy, I know as well as you that this isn't trust
It's just you playing games with me
That you think I will never see
Come on, you know as well as me that I've had enough
It's not the memory that's killing me, it's touch

[Verse 2]
See, I forget my ways, I'm way too deep in your embrace
You wipe away my tears and I play happy (Happy)
Oh, what's the reason we're still out?
It's way too late to mess around
It's time for me to leave, your touch won't let me
But fuck it, I'ma go ('Cause you don't hold me down)

[Chorus]
Boy, I know as well as you that this isn't trust
It's just you playing games with me
That you think I will never see
Come on, you know as well as me that I've had enough
It's not the memory that's killing me, it's touch

[Bridge]
And everything I do
Before I sleep I'll say to you
All the mysterious in black and blue
I'm telling you, before I sleep, I knew

[Chorus]
Boy, I know as well as you that this isn't trust
It's just you playing games with me
That you think I will never see
Come on, you know as well as me that I've had enough
It's not the memory that's killing me, it's touch
Boy, I know as well as you that this isn't trust
It's just you playing games with me
That you think I will never see
And you know as well as me that I've had enough
It's not the memory that's killing me, it's touch
