Disaster Case

(album: Steady Glow - 2019)

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
