You Didn’t Have Nightmares When We Were Together

[Verse]
You told me sadness don't make friends
Been alone for years, so that makes sense
Thought the walls I built were my defense
Even after all this time I spent
In the isolation of my head
All the hearts I broke and rules I bent
There was something I could not prevent
Now I finally realize what you meant

[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to hide away
From anyone that wanted to get close to me
I thought I'd be content
I know you tried to make me
See the way I fought who I'm supposed to be
At odds with now and then

[Chorus]
Is everything fading
Right before my eyes
I never thought it'd come to this
Was I too impatient
To see through all your lies
A tragedy
I never thought that this would happen

Is everything fading
Right before my eyes
I never thought it'd come to this
Was I too impatient
To see through all your lies
A tragedy
I never thought that this would happen

[Bridge]
I tried to hide away
From anyone that wanted to get close to me
I thought I'd be content
I know you tried to make me
See the way I fought who I'm supposed to be
At odds with now and then
