I want to sleep with music on

dark summer nights
all I did was feel the cold air on my skin
sleeping late

humid air
mattress outside
I saw him smoke in the middle of the night

pounding on the walls
I want to fall down

drowning in my skin

now it's different

drowning in your sadness
inside your head

lost in my loneliness

I was hoping I could be the one to save me
dreaming
save me
stepping inside mirrors
save me

I was hoping
I could
be the one
