Bed of Lies

No, I would not sleep in this bed of lies

So toss me out and turn in

And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes

I'm marking it down to learnin', I am

I don't think that I could take another empty moment

I don't think that I could fake another hollow smile

Well, it's not enough just to be lonely

I don't think that I can take another talk about it

And just like me, you've got needs

And they're only a whisper away

And we softly surrender

To these lives that we've tendered away

But I would not sleep in this bed of lies

So toss me out and turn in

And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes

I'm marking it down to learnin'

I'm marking it down to learnin'

'Cause I can

Don't wanna be the one who turns the whole thing over

I don't wanna be somewhere where I just don't belong

Where it's not enough just to be sorry

Don't you know I feel the darkness closing in

I tried to be more than me

And I gave until it all went away

And we've only surrendered

To the worst part, hell of these winters that we've made

But I would not sleep in this bed of lies

So toss me out and turn in

And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes

I'm marking it down to learnin'

I'm marking it down to learnin'

I am all that I'll ever be

When you lay your hands over me

Over me, but don't go weak on me, please

I know that it's weak

But, God, help me I need this

I would not sleep in this bed of lies

So toss me out and turn in

And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes

I'm marking it down to learnin'

I'm marking it down to learnin'

'Cause I can
