These Restless Nights

[Verse 1: Todd Barriage]
You're distant, dismissive, abused
You're everything I hate about me
Incessant, obsessive, confused
You tell me that I'm everything I need to be
Then why am I still sleepless dreaming?

[Chorus: Michael Sartor]
Oh, these restless nights that I spend away from you
Will be the death of me
And oh, these restless nights that I spend away from you
Will be the death of me

[Verse 2: Todd Barriage]
I'm open, expressive, rеnewed
Therе's nothing left of him about me
Dishonest, malignant, and shrewd
You tell me that I'm everything I need to be
Then why am I still sleepless dreaming?

[Chorus: Michael Sartor]
Oh, these restless nights that I spend away from you
Will be the death of me
And oh, these restless nights that I spend away from you
Will be the death of me
Oh

[Bridge: Todd Barriage, Michael Sartor, Todd Barriage & Michael Sartor]
And the back of my mind, it screams
"I'm always fine, I'm never like this"
I'm never like this
I'm never like this
But maybe it's for the better

The corners of my eyes are streams
I'm not alright, but I'm better like this
I'm better like this
I'm better like this
I'm better like this
I'm better like this

I'm better like this, I'm better like this
(The corners of my eyes are streams)
I'm better like this, I'm better like this
(I'm not alright, but I'm better like this)
I'm better like this, I'm better like this
I'm better like this

[Chorus: Michael Sartor]
Oh, these restless nights that I spend away from you
Will be the death of me
And oh, these restless nights that I spend away from you
Will be the death of me
And oh, these restless nights that I spend away from you
Will be the death of me and

[Outro: Todd Barriage]
Oh, these restless nights that I spend away from you
Will be the death of me
