lyrics

Twisting and turning my energies wreck me
the tide in my heart keeps keeping me up
where i once could be safe and i once could be sure
i'm asking for you to fill up my cup

now every mistake that i made with you haunts me
every word i could have said runs amok
now i lie here not knowing just what could have been
wishing i could go back and I could tie these ends up

because I don't like being alone with the lights out in my room
when all that fills my head is what's to come soon
i'm so much more at peace with you by my side
but something's taken you, I'm blaming the tides

I've been fighting my demons for months of dark nights
and they only come out when I turn off my light
now easy sleep and your hands fill my prayers
this felt so much better with someone to fight for

at once we seemed perfect and at once it all stopped
what happened to our talks of moving cars and rooftops
this list has grown deeper ingrained in my mind
why can't I see past you? Have you made me blind?
I used to find calm in the still of the night
now all that i can see are the evils inside
my every thought heard through false clenched teeth
mind in the wind, blown like a leaf

I've got my guitar and you at arms length
a night under the stars and a bottle to drink
I won't miss your smile, I won't miss your face
I won't miss your style and I won't miss your grace
I'll stay on the left side of my bed
Under the light I'll repeat what you said
Sing quietly to myself in my head
about the empty space on the right of my bed
