[Verse 1] I turn up my speakers So I can drown my thoughts just a little bit quicker Dancing barefoot in the dead of winter So I can numb this heart that’s full of splinters [Verse 2] They say time heals All wounds but these clocks are at a standstill And I’m counting every second that you’re not here But only in my dreams do you appear [Pre-Chorus] Am I allowed to lay down my smile And be bitter just for a while? [Chorus] Don’t keep pulling me under we were meant to stay afloat I see all the embers they’ve not yet lost all their glow Could you try to take a look into my eyes And tell me why oh why why why? Why oh why why why? Why oh why? [Verse 3] I close all the windows Draw the curtains hoping that the sun knows All I see is you when the day glows Reminding me that you are just a shadow [Verse 4] When I wake For a split second in time my heart does not ache Thinking you’ll be next to me then I shake To see an empty bed and all over I brake [Pre-Chorus] Am I allowed to lay down my smile And be bitter just for a while? [Chorus] Don’t keep pulling me under we were meant to stay afloat I see all the embers they’ve not yet lost all their glow Could you try to take a look into my eyes And tell me why oh why why why? [Bridge] I should have known when you were grinding your teeth (I should have known) That you were hiding your feelings from me oh I should have known when you were tossing in your sleep (I should have known) That you were hiding your feelings from me [Chorus] Don’t keep pulling me under we were meant to stay afloat I see all the embers they’ve not yet lost all their glow Could you try to take a look into my eyes And tell me why oh why why why? [Chorus] Don’t keep pulling me under we were meant to stay afloat I see all the embers they’ve not yet lost all their glow Could you try to take a look into my eyes And tell me why oh why why why? Why oh why why why? Why oh why why why? Why oh why why why?
