Disaster Case
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm keeping my distance while you're sleeping alone
You're reaching for your keys if you're uneasy, let go
If it happened one time, it's gonna happen again
Out of sight, but not out of mind
Laying on the floor of the empty apartment you left me in
I'm a disaster case, left you with sour taste
Can't expect you to shoulder the weight
If it happened one time, it's gonna happen again
We let it slip right through our fingers
Like the sand in an hour glass
And it always lingers
You'll find a better me when you fall asleep
Out of sight, but not out of mind
I guess that I just wasn't enough
If you're able to leave me behind
Sunday I sent a letter from nowhere
Hope this finds you well
Oh, but if it happened one time
You know it's gonna, it's gonna happen again
We let it slip right through our fingers
Like the sand in an hour glass
And it always lingers
You'll find a better me when you fall asleep
Are you at home alone tonight? (Don't say it)
I'm such a fool for boys like you
Are you at home alone tonight? (Don't say it)
Forget about our summer nights
Under the bright October stars (with you in my arms)
I'm such a fool for you
So close your eyes and fall asleep
And dream you found a better me
With perfect eyes and perfect teeth
It gives you what you need
We let it slip right through our fingers
Like the sand in an hour glass
And it always lingers
You'll find a better me when you fall asleep
When you fall asleep
You'll find a better me
You'll find a better me
When you fall asleep
I'm keeping my distance while you're sleeping alone
You're reaching for your keys if you're uneasy, let go
If it happened one time, it's gonna happen again
