(Verse 1)
I kicked you out, slammed the door,
But your scent still lives in the floor.
I sleep on the sofa with the lights on low,
Afraid to close my eyes, afraid you’ll show.
---
(Verse 2)
Your texts still come at 2AM,
"Baby, I’m sorry," like you mean it again.
You say you love me, you always did —
Then why did your love feel like punishment?
I see your shadow in the grocery line,
Move away from strangers, every time.
Even when you're not around,
You’re the echo in this town.
---
(Chorus)
I can’t sleep in our bed,
Too many ghosts in the sheets you left.
You haunt the hallways in my head,
And I keep breaking instead of rest.
Took pills just to quiet the noise,
But dreams still scream in your voice.
I’m not okay — I just pretend,
I can’t sleep in our bed again.
---
(Verse 3)
Walk the streets, I flinch at stares,
Pull my coat tight, breathe cold air.
You’re not here but I still brace,
For someone else to take your place.
Your name rings out from random lips,
I freeze, I panic, I bite my fists.
You’re gone, but I’m not free —
You're in every guy who looks at me.
---
(Pre-Chorus)
I tell my friends that I’m doing fine,
But I keep hearing footsteps at night.
You're not here, but it’s not true —
You live in everything I do.
---
(Chorus)
I can’t sleep in our bed,
Too many ghosts in the sheets you left.
You haunt the hallways in my head,
And I keep breaking instead of rest.
Took pills just to quiet the noise,
But dreams still scream in your voice.
I’m not okay — I just pretend,
I can’t sleep in our bed again.
---
(Bridge)
I reread your "I miss you" lines,
Like maybe this time, you'd mean it right.
But I know better and worse at once,
Still scanning crowds for your ghost at lunch.
Can’t trust a smile, can’t take a drink,
Always looking over my shoulder to think —
Are you watching, are you near?
I carry love like it’s laced with fear.
---
(Final Chorus)
I can’t sleep in our bed,
Memories tangled where we once slept.
I lock the doors, I hide instead,
Still waiting for peace I haven’t met.
Took pills just to silence the past,
But nothing numbs what doesn’t pass.
I’m not healed — I just pretend,
I can’t sleep in our bed again.
---
(Outro - soft & raw)
I changed the sheets…
But I still feel you.
Even here…
You're everywhere.
Beexii
