Every Night

Don't look
Don't tell me what I see
Whisper me away from me
Don't open up your eager eyes
Just so you can watch me sleep

You know you were always with me
This drama in the dark
Tears apart my soul
I know we've ceased to start
Still I lay beneath our sacred tree

Let the night time come
Every night my dreams the same
In the night I've come
In this night I've sought out your gaze

Don't talk of love
With him on your arm
Don't talk of worlds we'll never know
There is noting you can ever do
To make this right
To fix whats broken between me and you

Every night I go
Searching for my lost friend
Every night I go
Watching my world slowly end

Don't whisper things you'll never mean
Look at me when you speak
Even in this open air
You've lost your fire
There's nothing there

Just paint your face
With your faded smile
Slipping away from me
It doesn't matter where you hide
I'll find you if I'm wanting to

So lay back down
And close your eyes
Dream of things that deny your lies

Every night I come
To dream you're with me
Every night I scream
Awakened by the reality
Of this darkened dream
