I can't stand to see your eyes when they're aiming at the floor, But the worst is knowing I'm the reason for your bitter heart. And with my head in my hands, I'm thinking of the things I've done so wrong Though it's what I deserve, never take the melody from my song. 'Cause you're a lullaby playing through the tragedy That I listen for to brighten up the dark That's been romancing and keeping us asleep So now the quiet came around, found a soul muted deeper than its own And all his luggage piled in the room, He knows he's gonna have to stay for a while And with my feet on the ground, I wonder how I'm gonna escape from the flood Though it's what I deserve, I never want to have to decide to give up 'Cause you're a lullaby playing through the tragedy That I listen for to brighten up the dark That's been romancing and keeping us asleep While everything is wandering away from our reality
