[Verse 1]
It creeps all over you
Like a dull ache
Think of all the things
Your hands could make
It pulls you to the ground
Like soaking wet clothes
The change in your face
When anger shows
[Pre-Chorus]
In that moment, you realise that
Something you thought would
Always be there will die
Like everything else
[Chorus]
These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I can't make sense of
I need you to tell me it's okay
These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I can't make sense of
I need you to tell me it's okay
[Verse 2]
You are a sleeping lion in your bed
I will not wake you
You're the moment love has passed
We all must learn to hate you
You're a memory from before
Please don't let me forget you
You're the wolves at my door
[Pre-Chorus]
In that moment, you realise that
Something you thought would
Always be there will die
Like everything else
[Chorus]
These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I can't make sense of
I need you to tell me it's okay
These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I can't make sense of
I need you to tell me it's okay
[Bridge]
How can you know what things are worth
If your hands won't move to do a day's work?
How can you know what things are worth
If your hands won't move to do a day's work?
How can you know what things are worth
If your hands won't move to do a day's work?
How can you know what things are worth
If your hands won't move to do a day's work?
How can you know what things are worth
If your hands won't move to do a day's work?
How can you know what things are worth
If your hands won't move to do a day's work?
How can you know?
How can you know?
How can you know?
[Chorus]
These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I can't make sense of
I need you to tell me it's okay
These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I can't make sense of
I just need you to tell me it's okay
