Midnight strikes and I forgot
My empty skull rings "surely not"
I hear it echo and I feel the morning light
And my brain is in the fog that grew on my floor overnight

I feel like I'm being eaten alive
By the memories I've pushed aside
Am I burning out from the inside?
Because something's biting on my brain
The thoughts I thought that I could hide

[Hook] They are my reasons why I lie in bed to pass the time
They are my reasons why that I don't like waking up from dreams of you

I saw a picture and we were
Sitting on a cough in your living room
Me, I was looking at the floor
You wore that drowning gaze
I looked away from you

There's a sign on you that I can't read
It's a side of you I've never seen
And the picture always reminds me
How you claim you can read people's thoughts
You've claimed since you were seventeen

[Hook]
