Hearing the clock on the wall is ticking
Lying on my bed waiting
It's 5 a.m, the dawn is breaking
Maybe I'd sleep If I stopped thinking
I am on the brink of nothing
Where are you now?
Once you were in the song in that car
Once you were the city I adore
Lighting a candle to my darkest room
Then you blew it out, it's all black again
Garnishing my garden with red roses,
Then you burnt them all
Never did I say a word
Instead, I just burnt my cigarette.
Taking me to your secret oasis
Then watched me die in pain
It was just like a hair pin dropping
Nobody heard a damn thing
In the middle of the night, I wake up in a cold sweat
Flashbacks try to hold me tight
It turns out that you're just a black dog that haunts me every night .
