Verse 1 Clock on the wall says half past three Ceilin’ fan hummin’ like it’s mockin’ me I said I needed space, said I needed time Funny how I got both and I’m losin’ my mind Every word I should’ve said comes rushin’ back Every bridge I burned still smells like ash Pre-Chorus I tried to drown it out, but the quiet bites Yeah, every truth comes alive at night Chorus Nightmares burnin’, your ghost won’t let me sleep Every shadow in this room keeps lookin’ like me Just a grim reminder when the night goes quiet Of another love I couldn’t get right Verse 2 I replay the fight like it’s stuck on loop Every wrong tone, every half-truth I was too proud to just stay and listen Too busy talkin’ ’bout what I was missin’ Now the bed’s too big, the house too still And regret’s got a hell of a memory Pre-Chorus I thought I was strong walkin’ away Turns out lonely’s got a lot to say Chorus Nightmares burnin’, your ghost haunts me at night Every “almost” and “what if” feels too real tonight Just a grim reminder when the night goes quiet Of another love I couldn’t get right Bridge I don’t blame you for leavin’ I blame me for lettin’ it die Some things don’t break all at once They fade while you’re lookin’ the other way (brief drop) Nightmares burnin’… Final Chorus Nightmares burnin’, yeah, I’m wide awake Starin’ down the damage that I didn’t save If love’s a lesson, I paid the price For another love I couldn’t get right (soft resolve) Yeah… another love I couldn’t get right
