lyrics

I can't sleep at night
I can't sleep at night (2xs)

(VERSE)
There's a hole in your heart - that I speak to
Feel it echo inside - as I slip through
with every breath that you breathe
leaving less there of me
than before

There's your skin against mine - In the silence
Feel you looking at me -You don't notice
As these seconds slip by - I'm this ghost by your side
Fading from you

(CHORUS)
Don't you know that you're breaking me down
Don't you know that you're breaking me down
Don't just lay there - say nothing at all
I need to hear more
Don't you know that you're breaking me down

(VERSE 2)
I can't sleep at night
I can't sleep at night (2x)

If I sit up in bed will you see me
place my feet on the floor - would you stop me
or with glazed over eyes - and diminished surprise
think you're only dreaming

A bittersweet gesture to hold you
met with little reponse - I can't breakthrough
this space taking hold - doesn't linger - it grows
can't fight it alone

(TO CHORUS) (2xs)

(BRIDGE)
Watch it now - fade away
curtain falls - empty stage
nothing but -this bed we made
no -
desperate call - in the dark
waking us - from where we are
just me holding on
to you
