[immediately start] [distored vocals] In the stillness of the morning I lay under these covers So warm So snug (so snug) A heavy weight upon my chest Can't seem to find the strength to stand up (stand up) [instrumental interlude] The clock keeps talking in the corner Reminds me how long it’s been since you called (since you called) I trace your name in the dust on the dresser But the letters fade before they fall (they fall) I’m tangled in the sheets of quiet comfort In this small world where my fears subside (subside) The daylight calls but I sink deeper In this cocoon where our silence hides (silence hides) Rain racing down lines on my window Like the tears I never let you see (let you see) Every drop a word left unspoken Falling from the sky between you and me (you and me) Faded lullabies still linger like the static of my old cassettes I replay them just to feel something Even if it’s pain I'd rather forget Did you ever mean to leave me lonely? Or did you just not know how to stay? The rain keeps time with the heartbeat I’m missing But I still listen anyway I’m tangled in the sheets of quiet comfort In this small world where I pretend I’m fine (I’m fine) The daylight calls but I sink deeper Where love once lived but never said goodbye (goodbye) Maybe I’ll wake when the rain stops… Or maybe I’ll just stay here awhile
