lyrics

MY BED

We were like a flower that never bloomed
Beautiful potential ruined too soon
We had all the makings but we were doomed
We were doomed
You got in your car and drove away
I said sorry 2 seconds too late
Standing on the front step talking to myself
I'm talking to myself

I watched you leave thinking you weren't right for me and I'd be fine
I've got all the pieces but can't seem to form this puzzle in my mind
I'm running out of air to climb these stairs
I think I'll sleep on the couch tonight
'Cause if I don't deserve your kisses on my head
Then I don't deserve my bed

Feeling like a fool screwing things up
I mistook my half full glass for an empty cup
I Poured you out like you were not enough
To please my selfish needs
I'm messed up too, can't you see

I watched you leave, thinking you weren't right for me and I'd be fine
I've got all the pieces but can't seem to form this puzzle in my mind
I'm running out of air to climb these stairs
I think I'll sleep on the couch tonight
'Cause if I don't deserve your kisses on my head
Then I don't deserve my bed

I miss you here
l'm sleeping alone
I miss your silly faces out the window
When I would leave the only place that ever felt like home
I know you know I know you know
I know

I watched you leave thinking you weren't right for me and I'd be fine
I've got all the pieces but can't seem to form this puzzle in my mind
I'm running out of air to climb these stairs
I think I'll sleep on the couch tonight
'Cause if I don't deserve your kisses on my head
Then I don't deserve my bed
