Lullaby

Lullaby

Oh, how sweet you sounded when I’d close my eyes

I miss the comfort you would bring into my life

But I took you for granted when you were mine

Misery

If you asked me, love, I’d hold you so imperfectly

Take back the safety that I found within your company

I can’t stand the way you think, that’s why I’m on my knees

Someday

I’ll find new songs to listen to

But nothing

Seems to sound as good as you

Nothing new

I’ve been looking for some way to rid these thoughts of you

In any other life I’d still have more to lose

But here I’m bound by words I never said but meant to

Someday

I’ll find new songs to listen to

But nothing

Seems to sound as good as you

So I’ll sleep next to the radio

Pretending that you’re dreaming next to me

'Cause I don’t wanna heal this if it means that I can’t feel this

Forgive me if my honesty is keepin you from moving on

Right now I want you bad

Or just the feeling I once had

So I’m combing through our history like it’s a work of fiction

Found my loathing is just lonely with the slightest change of diction

No I don’t want you back

Just need something to distract

From the emptiness I find

When I can’t hear that lullaby
