Twin Bed

Like puzzle pieces I could force to fit
She was everything I wasn't
And I needed it
It was the way she slept all night long
While all I did was replay the same songs
And remember how I thought
this would fix it all
But with this love
I still feel so small
And you seem so tall
So far above it all

Staring at the ceiling with paralyzed eyes
Not counting sheep or dreaming deep
It's just so lonely when you're asleep
Will we remember
The weight of the feathers
In that twin-sized bed
Where we lied together

I want to be something more
But it's all so out of reach
And I don't want to cling to you
Like I'm some pathetic leech
It's all going to fall when my pillars crack
And I don't want to be the straw
That finally breaks your back
The shrugged dismissals you pretend to believe
Everyone knows the story, babe
It's all on my sleeve
So why not leave
Don't be naive

Staring at the ceiling with paralyzed eyes
Not counting sheep or dreaming deep
It's just so lonely when you're asleep
Will we remember
The weight of the feathers
In that twin-sized bed
Where we lied together
