[Verse 1]
Once a night, the bedroom light
Bleeds out from inside my window
Eyes white, I keep out of sight
This city's just not pretty like it used to be

[Pre-Chorus]
It's always a nightmare, it's never a dream
A promise we made to kill the days between
They live in the heartbeat and sleep 'til the light is gone
It's been so long...

[Chorus]
Feels like pins and needles in my heart
So long, I can feel it tearing me apart

[Verse 2]
To the bed, the left unsaid
Crawl in from outside my window
Hands red and cold as the dead
A pity they're not pretty like they used to be

[Pre-Chorus]
It's always a nightmare, it's never a dream
A promise we made to kill the days between
They live in the heartbeat and sleep 'til the light is gone
It's been so long...
[Chorus]
Feels like pins and needles in my heart
So long, I can feel it tearing me apart

[Bridge]
It's never a whisper, it's always a scream
A promise we made to kill the time between
They live in the heartbeat and sleep 'til the light is gone
It's been so long...

[Chorus]
Feels like pins and needles in my heart
So long, I can feel it tearing me apart
