Horrific Dream

[Verse 1] You left the porch light on Like that could save the night Your keys in the cereal bowl Your voice too thin, too tight I saw the crack in your smile Before you said a word And I knew what was coming Even if it sounded absurd [Pre-Chorus] You kept saying, "You'll be fine" But your hands gave you away Little shakes in your sleeves Like rain that can't stay [Chorus] Of course it’s gonna be a lot worse than your most horrific dreams (Your most horrific dreams) Of course it’s gonna be a lot worse than your most horrific dreams (It's already on the screen) You asked for the truth Now it's leaning in Of course it’s gonna be a lot worse than your most horrific dreams [Verse 2] The fridge kept clicking in the hall Like a clock with broken teeth You were staring at the wallpaper Like it had some kind of relief I held your name in my mouth Didn’t know what to do When the floor gave a little And the whole room told the truth [Pre-Chorus] You kept saying, "Tell me now" So I didn’t dress it up If you wanted a soft landing You should've not looked up [Chorus] Of course it’s gonna be a lot worse than your most horrific dreams (Your most horrific dreams) Of course it’s gonna be a lot worse than your most horrific dreams (It's already on the screen) You asked for the truth Now it's leaning in Of course it’s gonna be a lot worse than your most horrific dreams [Bridge] And I wish I had A kinder line A gentler door A smaller sky But once the dark Gets in your chest It doesn’t ask It just does the rest [Final Chorus] Of course it’s gonna be a lot worse than your most horrific dreams (Your most horrific dreams) Of course it’s gonna be a lot worse than your most horrific dreams (It's already on the screen) Hold my stare Don’t look away Of course it’s gonna be a lot worse than your most horrific dreams (Your most horrific dreams)
