[Verse One]
I rest my tired head
On the far end of my mattress
And let you sleep inside my bed
Despite a hesitation
I just thought you couldn't sleep
But you had other things in mind
As I froze in place
Felt the tips of your fingers dig in
[Chorus]
In the dead of night
It was a deafening blow
I didn't wanna think
I didn't know where else to go
I didn't wanna make
Some kind of scene
So I grit my teeth
For what almost could have been
A hole in my head
And a fractured brain
[Verse Two]
And as you made your final move
I made mine
To the couch upstairs
That I got last year from a couple moving out
Of a place I'd much prеfer
But still think about every now and thеn
As you followed up the stairs
To tell me it's alright
I can go back to bed now
Now that you're gone
[Chorus]
In the dead of night
It was a deafening blow
I didn't wanna think
I had nowhere else to go
I didn't wanna make
Some kind of scene
So I grit my teeth
For what almost could have been
A hole in my head
And a fractured brain
