[Verse 1]
Lying in the dark, I know you’ll let me down again
Lying to my face, I know it’s happening again
Oh, I don’t say a thing
Oh, I don’t say a thing
Now I’m looking back, I should've listened to my friends
I'm standing in the kitchen, thinking, “Where do I begin?”
Oh, I don’t say a thing
Oh
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I put my hands over my eyes
Been here too many times
And you can think it’s fine
If that helps you sleep at night
[Chorus]
But get your head away from my head
I spent too long being close to you
So get your bed away from my bed
‘Cause even if I wanted to, I can’t wake up next to you, ooh
‘Cause even if I wanted to, I can’t wake up next to you
[Verse 2]
Every time you talk, I know it’s happening again
Every word you say, you’ll only bring me down again
Oh, I don’t say a thing
Oh
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I put my hands over my eyes
Don’t know why I act surprised
And you can think it’s fine
If that helps you sleep at night, oh
[Chorus]
But get your head away from my head
I spent too long being close to you
So get your bed away from my bed
‘Cause even if I wanted to, I can’t wake up next to you, oh
‘Cause even if I wanted to, I can’t wake up next to you, oh
‘Cause even if I wanted to, I can’t wake up next to you, ooh
[Bridge]
Hand on my chest, I’m doing the best I can (Ah)
I’ll get to the rest, oh, hand on my chest again (ah)
Ah, ah, ah (Ah)
Ah, ah, ah (Ah)
[Pre-Chorus]
Put my hands over my eyes
Don’t know why I act surprised
And you can think it’s fine
If that helps you sleep at night, oh
[Chorus]
But get your head away from my head
I spent too long being close to you
And get your bed away from my bed
‘Cause even if I wanted to, I can’t wake up next to you, ooh
‘Cause even if I wanted to, I can’t wake up next to you, ooh
‘Cause even if I wanted to, I can’t wake up next to you, ooh
[Outro]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah
