Dysfunctional family
Childhood violence
We've been broken from the start
Faced the worst in life apart
I don't blame you for anything
But what are we trying to prove
What are we trying to spare
When we twist and turn
As the blankets burn
No, I can't sleep with you in a burning bed
With everything I own under your pillow
And I can't sleep when I see what lies ahead
We're just two hours away from tomorrow
I refuse to sleep under a burning bridge
With everything I own tied to your failure
I know there must be more than this for me
I'm just two hours away from my future
Distorted reality
Mental gymnastics
Aren't we too flexible
In a life too unbearable
I don't blame you for anything
But what are we trying to spare
What are we trying to prove
When we refuse to learn
When the blankets burn
I can't sleep with you in a burning bed
With everything I own under your pillow
And I can't sleep when I see what lies ahead
We're just two hours away from tomorrow
I refuse to sleep under a burning bridge
With everything I own tied to your failure
I know there must be more than this for me
I'm just two hours away from my future
What are we trying to prove
What are we trying to spare
When we twist and turn
As the blankets burn
I can't sleep with you in a burning bed
