You make it really hard sleep
Killing my nerves
You're like a methamphetamine
Oh
I waste these hours wide awake
I wont a make a sound
Thoughts take me over like a plague
Oh
I go through all this while you're sleeping
Safe sound in your bed
You'd never know the kinds of things my mind says
Like i'd be better off dead
Ahh
We're the only reason we stay here
We're the only ones who make it feel real
Been across the world
Shed tears
Made love in motel rooms
And you're still the one in
Oh
You make me feel so safe
You're like my anchor to this world
You think you've seen all of me
But you only see me smile when you're awake
I'll just keep singing to pretend that I'm not sinking
I'll just keep singing to pretend that I'm not sinking
The melody will take the pain away from me
I'm my own saboteur
That's one thing I know for sure
I throw little stones and see if they can skip like my heartbeat
I wonder how I would look if I threw my body
People come out as the sun rises
But they don't know me
And it makes me feel even more lonely
My breath gets lost in hundreds of voices
They welcome me with open arms but my mind is poisoned
I'll just keep singing to pretend that I'm not sinking
I'll just keep singing to pretend that I'm not sinking
The melody will take the pain away from me
I'm my own saboteur
That's one thing I know for sure
I'll sink on down
I'll sink on down
I'll sink on down
I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
My mind won't stop
My mind won't stop
My mind won't stop
I'm stuck in bed, with all these thoughts
I'll sink on down
I'll sink on down
Open your eyes and see me
Can't you see that I'm sinking
Open your eyes and see me
Can't you see that I'm sinking
I'll just keep singing to pretend that I'm not sinking
I'll just keep singing to pretend that I'm not sinking
The melody will take the pain away from me
I'm my own saboteur
That's one thing I know for sure
