Lyrics
I never said this would be right, maybe I should go on home, but I can't face another night, no I can't face it on my own.
We agreed it would be best if you did not come around, but I did not bank on this, I didn't bank on falling down.
Now I'm running from the danger.
'Cos I only feel safe when I'm asleep.
You know it's possible that I have been lying all along, but I know that you have too, so which one of us does that make wrong?
'Cos I only feel safe when I'm asleep.
'Cos I only feel safe, and I know that I won't break, it's okay to see your face when I'm asleep.
