Counting Sheep

Summer time was not a lie, but

Just a feeling that we got

And I know you feel alone too

But this heat is not for us

I know I wanted to go

Into the valley where it snows

But I realized

This place is too cold to live my life

I'm sorry, sorry I couldn't go

On with these lies while I'm kissing your nose

I wasn't ready, I should have known

That this would happen

So let's stop these words, they're turning cold

Let's treat this goodbye like a simple hello

You're still so young, you have room to grow

Into something amazing

You'll sleep tight, I know this feels right

But there's something you should understand

When the leaves change, after three days

You won't remember who I am

I'm not calling you out

It's just you sound like her when you open your mouth

And I can't live with the chance

That this feeling's ever coming back

So no, you're not what I need

Those words you say, they're the orange in the trees

And I just need to sleep

I'm so sick of always counting sheep

I've been feeling so ill, is this all in my thoughts?

This feeling I get when I want you to rot

For all the things and all the pain you've caused

If we see each other, we won't stop and stare

Yeah, I'd rather you treat me like I wasn't there

I don't hate you, but honey, this still hurts

So I still have the things that we've had from the start

This pen in my pocket, this rusted guitar

And the courage to sing this pain away
