I turn up my speakers
 So I can drown my thoughts just a little bit quicker
 Dancing barefoot in the dead of winter
 So I can numb this heart that's full of splinters
 They say time heals
 All wounds but these clocks are at a standstill
 And I'm counting every second that you're not here
 But only in my dreams do you appear
 Am I allowed to lay down my smile
 And be bitter just for a while?
 Don't keep pulling me under, we were meant to stay afloat
 I see all the embers, they've not yet lost all their glow
 Could you try to take a look into my eyes
 And tell me why oh why why why?
 Why oh why why why?
 Why oh why?
 I close all the windows
 Draw the curtains hoping that the sun knows
 All I see is you when the day glows
 Reminding me that you are just a shadow
 When I wake
 For a split second in time, my heart does not ache
 Thinking you'll be next to me, then I shake
 To see an empty bed and all over I brake
 Am I allowed to lay down my smile
 And be bitter just for a while?
 Don't keep pulling me under, we were meant to stay afloat
 I see all the embers, they've not yet lost all their glow
 Could you try to take a look into my eyes
 And tell me why, oh, why why why?
 I should have known when you were grinding your teeth
 (I should have known)
 That you were hiding your feelings from me, oh
 I should have known when you were tossing in your sleep
 (I should have known)
 That you were hiding your feelings from me
 Don't keep pulling me under we were meant to stay afloat
 I see the embers they've not yet lost all their glow
 Could you try to take a look into my eyes
 And tell me why oh why why why?
 Don't keep pulling me under we were meant to stay afloat
 I see all the embers they've not yet lost all their glow
 Could you try to take a look into my eyes
 And tell me why oh why why why?
 Why oh why why why?
 Why oh why why why?
 Why oh why why why?
 Why oh why why why?
