Songs I Write | V

Sleep

I sleep with the sun
You sleep with the city
I keep you in song
You keep on being shitty
I've lived at your feet and
I'm scorched by the heat
Of your warm lies
Worn by your teeth

I sleep in the day
You sleep with the town
A sheep in hay
You lose me and wonder how
I've lived for your promise
Promises kept me hostage
They were all lies
Forged by false honesty

I sleep with the sun
You sleep with anyone else
I'm cheap because it's fun
You cheat because what the hell
I've lived on my knees and
I'm scorched by defeat
Of your warm lies
Worn by your teeth

I slept in the day
You slept with the town
I kept you in praise
You lost me when I was found
I've lived for your promise
Promises kept me hostage
They were all lies
Forged by false honesty

Worn by your teeth
Worn by your teeth
