Lyrics

I'm trying but still I close my eyes
 ♪
 The dreaming bringing his face to mine
 Lock the door
 The constant buzzing all through the night
 ♪
 The fighting rips me all up inside
 On the floor
 I pace, I run my mouth
 I pray and wait
 I cross out his name on the page
 (How long 'til) this washes away?
 (How long 'til) my body is safe?
 (How long 'til) I walk in the light?
 (How long 'til) this heart isn't mine?
 The rise and fall of his chest on me
 ♪
 I'm trying but still it's all I see
 ♪
 The violent current of energy
 ♪
 I hide it away and underneath
 Lock the door
 I shake, I promise everyday
 To change
 I cross out his name on the page
 (How long 'til) this washes away?
 (How long 'til) my body is safe?
 (How long 'til) I walk in the light?
 (How long 'til) this heart isn't mine?
 Take this wildness away
 Anyway
 Anyway
 ♪
 I'm trying but still I close my eyes
 The dreaming bringing his face to mine
 Out the door
 I pace, I run my mouth
 I pray to change
 I cross out his name on the page
 (How long 'til) this washes away?
 (How long 'til) my body is safe?
 (How long 'til) this heart isn't mine?
 I just want him in my arms anyway
