Never Slept So Soundly
Couldn't see the moon when she came tonight
Emptiness inside her filled my room
I know its only distance but it feels just like the end
I won't ask this same old question
Adamant resistance
To my lasting desires
Searching for an explanation
To why I sleep alone
Oh, I'm not darling anymore
If you call you just use my name
Let these clenched fists open wide
To see where all the answers lie
Looking for a sign that I'm still alive
With these pilled-up smile and these sloppy eyes, yeah
Isn't that the truth?
And all the hollow whisperings from between your sheets
All the maybes in the world don't mean anything now
Pray it's over soon
Never slept so soundly
Than with your breath on my neck
The present has no future
The future has no past
The past is just a graveyard
For the lonely ghost, regret
It's so hard to say goodbye
When I shake too much to hold
Let this blood within me run
So I can see the answers dry
Looking for a sign that I'm still alive
With this junky smile and these sloppy eyes, yeah
Isn't that the truth?
And all the hollow whisperings from between your sheets
All the maybes in the world don't mean anything now
I pray it's over soon
We're finding our directions
Stumble, stagger, fall away
Oh, yeah
Finding our direction
Let it lead the way
Part of what you borrowed
Can never be replaced
So pardon my deflection, baby
There's no more blood to bleed
But if I can I'll be sewin' up the seeds
Pickin' up what's left of me
To sing together
Looking for a sign that I'm still alive
With this pilled-up smile and these sloppy eyes, yeah
Isn't that the truth?
And all the hollow whisperings from between your sheets
All the maybes in the world that don't mean anything, yeah
Isn't that the truth?
And now I'm looking for a sign that I'm still alive
With this pilled-up smile and these junky eyes
Isn't that the truth?
And all the hollow whisperings from between your sheets
All the maybes in the world don't mean anything now
Pray it's over soon
I never slept so soundly
Than with your breath on my neck
