"THE PLOT THICKENS"
Some things are better left alone
Move on, I know that’s what you want
Dragging my feet across the floor
I don’t sleep soundly anymore
You cant’ admit that you were wrong
Hiding from everything you’ve done
To hurt yourself and everyone
Can we figure this out? ‘Cause every night it comes around
These nights are longer than before
Staying up so I can watch the sun
Rising so high above us all
I don’t sleep soundly anymore
You cant’ admit that you were wrong
Hiding from everything you’ve done
To hurt yourself and everyone
I will stay awake tonight
These tired eyes plea for quiet dreams
But as it seems I’m robbed of the most basic need
I will stay awake tonight
Can we figure this out?
It’s just a matter of timing
And every night it comes around
And every night it comes around
Will your prayers help you out?
When you’re facing your demons?
And every night it comes around
And every night it comes around
