Lyrics
No, I would not sleep in this bed of lies
So toss me out and turn in
And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning, I am
I don't think that I could take another empty moment
I don't think that I could fake another hollow smile
Well, it's not enough just to be lonely
I don't think that I could take another talk about it
And just like me, you got needs and they're only a whisper away
And we softly surrender to these lives that we've tendered away
But I would not sleep in this bed of lies
So toss me out and turn in
And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning
I'm marking it down to learning 'cause I can
I don't wanna be the one who turns the whole thing over
I don't wanna be somewhere where I just don't belong
Where it's not enough just be sorry (I'm sorry)
Don't you know I feel the darkness closing in?
Tried to be more than me here and I gave until it all went away
And we've only surrendered to the worst part, hell of these winters that we've made
But I would not sleep in this bed of lies
So toss me out and turn in
And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning
I'm marking it down to learning
I am all that I'll ever be when you lay your hands over me
And don't go weak on me, please
I know that it's weak, but God help me, I need this
I would not sleep in this bed of lies
So toss me out and turn in
And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning
I'm marking it down to learning 'cause I can
