Sad Eyes

Well she's lying in our bed,
Sweating, staring at the ceiling
I know her worried head is achin'
I know the cause is me
I could leave the bathroom light on
For better dreams tonight
My stability, my luxury, my life
And I won't go
Neither will you
Turn off the phone, let's sleep till two

Your sad eyes
Take and own me
Words are unnecessary
Grip the back of your neck
And slowly
Move till it all becomes alright
All becomes alright

I wake up in a cold sweat
Got a bone to pick with reality
I take a deep breath and lay back down
Wearing my badge of infamy
Change the bulb in the night-light
Cause it flickered, flickered and died
Repeat the words "You're not alone"
To self three times
And hit the light
My aim is true
Turn off the phone, let's sleep till two

Your sad eyes
Take and own me
Words are unnecessary
Grip the back of your neck
And slowly
Move till it all becomes alright
All becomes allright

Let the fighting words lie
Let the candlelight die
Let the sun come up
Let the saline dry

Your sad eyes
Take and own me
Words are unnecessary
Grip the back of your neck
And slowly
Move till it all becomes allright
All becomes allright

Let the fighting words lie
Let the candlelight die
Let the sun come up
Let the saline dry
