"One Eye Open" lyrics

"One Eye Open"

(I sleep with one eye open)
(Open)

My hands are cold as pavement
I'm changing
To ice, ice

I'm counting all the places
Your face is
A knife, a knife

Let's pretend
We don't know how this ends
We could leave it for dead
But you're so persistent

I sleep with one eye open
I hear you heavy breathing through the door
You dream of my devotion
It kills you I don't need it anymore

You keep me
Uneasy
Just leave me
Alone

I sleep with one eye open
Open
Open

I'm trapped in your good graces
Abrasive
I fight, fight

I'm forced to be your favorite
Just say goodbye
Bye

Let's pretend
We don't know how this ends
We could leave it for dead
But you're so persistent

I sleep with one eye open
I hear you heavy breathing through the door
You dream of my devotion
It kills you I don't need it anymore

You keep me
Uneasy
Just leave me
Alone

I sleep with one eye open
Open
Open

And as I lay
My head to rest
I take a blade
To my chest
I try to pray
I'm out of breath
I drift away
I'm self possessed
