Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You loved my quiet
Said my eyes looked deep
But you don’t see the movies
Playing when I sleep
Dog tags on the dresser
Clock stuck at 3:03
You trace the scars like questions
You think you’re safe with me
[Chorus]
You think I’m the one
’Til you’re sleeping next to me
When the darkness comes
I’m a stranger
I’m a beast
Wake up in cold sweat
Hands around the sheets
I’m keyed
You think I’m the one
’Til you’re sleeping next to me
[Verse 2]
Bedframe starts shaking
I’m back behind that wall
Your voice turns into sirens
I don’t hear you at all
You whisper
“Baby
Breathe”
But I’m counting casualties
You hold me like a lover
I’m holding enemies
[Chorus]
You think I’m the one
’Til you’re sleeping next to me
When the darkness comes
I’m a stranger
I’m a beast
Wake up in cold sweat
Silent throat-shred
Violent screams
You think I’m the one
’Til you’re sleeping next to me
[Bridge]
I don’t mean to scare you (no)
I don’t want you to bleed
From the shrapnel in my head
Every time I fall asleep
If you stay
You’ll see the battle
If you stay
You’ll hear me plead
I’m the hero in the daylight
I’m the hell you meet in dreams
[Chorus]
You think I’m the one
’Til you’re sleeping next to me
When the darkness comes
I’m a stranger
I’m a beast
Wake up in cold sweat
Begging ghosts to let me breathe
You think I’m the one
’Til you’re sleeping next to me
[Outro]
You think I’m the one
Say you’re never gonna leave
But love turns into cover
When you’re sleeping next to me
