Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I watched you glide out the door
With poise I'd not seen before
I saw you shine
You shine
[Verse 2]
I collapsed to the floor
It promised it missed me more
And said, "True love is mine
I missed you
Did you miss me?"
[Verse 3]
Slowly, it's consuming me
Deliberate and deep
I can't take this deeper panic
Teach me
Teach me not to dream
Dream deeply
[Verse 4]
I haven't left here for days
My panic keeps me awake
As he unwinds
Inside
He told me I should have known
That he'd hated the way I'd grown to love soft lies
"She lied
Do you miss her
Like I missed you?"
[Verse 5]
Slowly, it's consuming me
Deliberate and deep
I can't take this deeper panic
Teach me
Teach me not to dream
Dream deeply
[Verse 6]
Slowly, it's consuming me
Deliberate and deep
I can't take this deeper panic
Teach me
Teach me not to dream
Dream deeply
[Verse 7]
Slowly, I swallowed your fears
For all of those years
How could you let them consume me?
Teach me
Teach me how you sleep
So sweetly
[Verse 8]
Slowly, it's consuming me
Deliberate and deep
I can't take this deeper panic
Teach me
Teach me how you sleep
So sweetly
