"Now I lay me down to sleep, My eyes are filled, these tears I weep His love I wish wouldn't fade And would wish me 'good morning' the next day
Now I lay me down to sleep, My eyes still cry, for you I weep Your false assumptions and miscommunication I lack Where did you go? I want the old you back This came out of nowhere - what the hell did I do? Just two weeks ago you claimed 'I love you'
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep If I should die before I wake It's because you made my kind heart ache With your unexpected desire to be with someone other than me I hope you remember, when you visit me
Now I lay me down to sleep, In my coffin down underneath Now I'm saved, from the misery and pain And I hope you know you're the one to blame"
A spin on a popular Prayer. I wrote this after my boyfriend broke up with me for an "unknown" reason (turned out there was one that I found out later). Before he officially broke up with me, he was ignoring and avoiding hanging out with me for about a week and I was stressing out that I did something wrong.
