Jaded Beauty - Lilac Lyrics

She must be asleep now
She usually doses off about a quarter to midnight
Or at least she did with me
And I hope she's dreaming a dream of benediction and bountiful lovelies
On lilac sheets she lies
She takes subconscious hours for granted
And when the sun will rear it's head
You can almost bet she'll dress in independence
You laid me down
And put me to rest
You closed your eyes and never allowed them to split
I filled my mouth with fermentation so maybe then I could sleep half as well as you did
When you left me
Scour the ground
Digging shallow graves just incase I would ever want to get out
People walking by me have no idea
That every waking moment is a struggle not to wet my eyes in this drought
But emotional is as emotional does so I guess you could say I'm over dramatic
Painting grey skies over anticlimatics
You're the first thing that I think of each day
And you seem to last until I fall asleep in my bed
And I can't help it if I love you even if I barely exist in your head
On lilac sheets she lies
On lilac sheets she lies
On lilac sheets she lies
On lilac sheets she lies to me
