I miss wrapping my arms around you in bed
The warmth of your back against my chest
The smell of your hair as I nuzzle your neck
The slow heave of your breath as you sleep
Was the safest and most peaceful place to be at night

And yet, you're no longer there
As I lay bare my heart to no one else
Tears I shed in bed for no one else
I wonder how much longer does it have to hurt
Especially now that I know we aren't together

The bed is cold and empty at night without you here
The nights quiet and painful without your breath
Nights are no longer peaceful or safe
I feel the darkness creeping on me now that I'm alone
There's nowhere left to hide in this dark embrace
