I don’t even want to survive, cause they foiled our plans and blew out all our candles and
I’ve been deprived of goodbyes, so don’t be sentimental
I’ve had a taste of the truth and I can’t swallow my own medicine
So I curl up under my blanket, safe behind peepholes
Free to judge and never offend, nothing to lose or to defend
So I’m sleeping instead
We’re not coming up for air this time, cause each drop of booze is a pound in our shoes and
We’re accomplices to the crime, but they’ll never find us
We’ve had a taste of it all, and we were on the ground before the fall
So I curl up under my blanket, safe behind peepholes
Free to judge and never offend, nothing to lose or to defend
So I’m sleeping instead
I don’t even want to survive, cause they foiled our plans and blew out all our candles and
I’ve been deprived of goodbyes, so don’t be sentimental
I’ve had a taste of the truth and I can’t swallow my own medicine
So I curl up under my blanket, safe behind peepholes
Free to judge and never offend, nothing to lose or to defend
So I’m sleeping instead
You’ve got problems? Tell me about it, been thinking about tucking myself in once and for all
Once in a while, once in my goddamn life
Got the TV set for two, and I know that you’re gone, and I know that it’s true
You can’t swallow yours too, so we curl up under our blankets
Safe behind peepholes
Free to judge and never offend, nothing to lose or to defend
So I’m sleeping instead
