Settle for a Nightmare
guitar chords lyrics
I stay in bed, and try and sleep,
oh it doesn't matter
I toss and turn on dirty sheets,
better i did without her
I'd grind my crooked fuckin teeth untill they crack and shatter
Then I think I need another drink,
but remember that it doesn't get any better
in the morning if i still wake up
alone and know that I'm in any empty home,
and no one to hold
so I just pop a pill that will give me the apathy I need to sleep
so then I can get up and do it all again.
I just can't sleep here,
How I'd kill for a dream,
But I'd settle for a nightmare.
I just can't sleep here,
How I'd kill for a dream,
But I'd settle for a nightmare.
Just so that I can close my eyes,
and pretend everything's alright.
The only thing that's so scary as the monster that's in my closet,
Is the thought that if he didn't, he'd escape
I couldn't stop him from starting to tear me apart
From ripping off my arms, and taking out my heart clean out of my chest
But the best that I can do is to just lay in bed
and pull the covers over my head and hope that everything gets better
In the morning, and the sun is pouring through the window curtains
and I'm certain that it's not away, and i can sit up and say
I just can't sleep here,
How I'd kill for a dream,
But I'd settle for a nightmare.
Just so that I can close my eyes,
and pretend everything's alright.
Everything's alright.
I just can't sleep here,
How I'd kill for a dream,
But I'd settle for a nightmare.
Just so that I can close my eyes.
I just can't sleep here,
How I'd kill for a dream,
But I'd settle for a nightmare.
Just so that I can close my eyes,
and pretend everything's alright.
Well, everything's alright.
Everything's alright.
