Where I Sleep
A lack of judgement packed with ill intentioned arguments
Passive aggressive silences to clear the anger in your chest

Alone in this
To feel content
Pushed aside the feeling for the night so I can sleep but I

Scratched my nail on the brick wall where I sleep
Woke up bottled with guilt cause you weren’t with me
It’s only personal, for you I guess you’re holding up
But I won't be alright

If I could find the little things that help me too
Like changing up the mattress that just fucks up my back

Why do I lose my mind
When you are sitting there, doing just fine
I can’t just sit and rewind all my time
Trading my dollars in for dimes

Sweating from dreams just keep grinding my teeth
I’d grind them to the core so I can think before I speak

Tie my head around you just to see what you see
And you had woke up bottled with guilt cause you weren’t with me

(And I watch you leave)

Another night away from myself
I feel I’m always on the come down
She can’t sleep
I’m just grinding my teeth

Lost my teeth when I thought of you
Forgot the things that I said I knew
If I could change it I would
But I woke because I
