not sleeping anymore

waltz for someone else

i beg you to stay but it won't stand in the way
of my lonely bed
and my empty head
so i pushed you away with things i did and didn't say
you stopped listening
anyway

will you hold my heart, held
by this one last thread?

the pride that i've swallowed, now deep inside
i can see
in your brown eyes
as you look to me and sincerely decline
i'll rephrase it
one more time

will you hold my heart, held
by this one last thread?

i beg you to stay but we're at the doorway
of my lonely bed
and my empty head
humility is my disguise tonight
keep me here
where my loneliness dies

will you hold my heart, held
by this one last thread?
