Matchbox 20- Bed of Lies

No, I would not sleep in this bed of lies
So toss me out and turn in
And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning, I am

Don't think that I can take another empty moment
Don't think that I can fake another hollow smile
It's not enough just to be lonely
Don't think I could take another talk about it

Just like you got needs, and they're only a whisper away
And we softly surrender, to these lives that we've tendered away

No, I would not sleep in this bed of lies
So toss me out and turn in
And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning, I am

Don't wanna be the one who turns the whole thing over
Don't wanna be somewhere where I just don't belong
Where it's not enough just to be sorry

Don't you know I feel the darkness closing in
Tried to be more than me, and I gave until it all went away
And we've only surrendered
To the worst part of these winters we've made

No, I would not sleep in this bed of lies
So toss me out and turn in
And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning, I am

I am all that I'll ever be when you
Lay your hands over me but don't go weak on me now
I know that it's weak
But God help me I need this

I will not sleep in this bed of lies
So toss me out and turn in
And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning, I'm marking it down to learning
'Cause I am
