The Bed I Made
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.
All the ways I cared for you
are working like you want them to
as I break down and you stay strong
I write my own forgiveness song
I try to lie down and sleep it off like a drug
but it's not your concern
another night and it's only right
I toss and I turn in the bed I made
the wine dark room the flashing eyes
that hung me from my string of lies
you said you were numb from wondering
I guess I wasn't listening
I try to lie down and sleep it off like a drug
but you're not concerned
another night and it's only right
that I toss and I turn in the bed I made
With my own hands
I fashioned this frame
and into the wood
I carved out my name
I try to lie down and sleep it off like a drug
but you're not concerned
another night and it's only right
that I toss and I turn in the bed I made
And it's only right
that I toss and I turn
in the bed I made
the bed I made
the bed I made
