I hear the sound of you next to me
And they shift the sheets over to me
In this heat that keeps me up
I’m the only one awake
The only one who takes it
The sound of glass breaking
And the shuffle on the street
All those kids running scared
And it wouldn’t be there for me
To wake you just to see
Instead I listen close to hear you breathe
Break off these trusses that hold us up
I could be better, bettеr, better
I could be thеre for you, better to you
But you make it harder, harder, harder
In your sleep you kick off the covers
To let me know about the others
All of what keeps you up in arms
Kept in a dark, dry place
In your sleep I feel you shaking
In your dreams I know you’re aching
In the quiet I hear the break in
Break off these trusses that hold us up
I could be better, better, better
I could be there for you, better to you
But you make it harder, harder, harder
But you make it harder, harder, harder
