We're only honest when we're sleeping

You're a broken thing
Your cracks are showing through
Your best attempts
At making nice with the world
So keep on dreaming
Cause someday soon my things that keep you at bay
Will fade away
Or so I've heard

We're only honest when we're sleeping
We're lying wide awake and dreaming
Wishing that we're with someone else
This bed's as cold as hell
When you're lying next to me

It's a twisted game
A brief and off-repeating
Prose that never seems to resonate
Spin the finger of blame
It's always on my heart
It burns on beating
While the other pulled up lame

We're only honest when we're sleeping
We're lying wide awake and dreaming
Wishing that we're with someone else
This bed's as cold as hell
When you're lying next to me

The ceiling paints a picture
And everything's a welcome work of art
Amidst the chaos in the mirror
The lies in lipstick real

We're only honest when we're sleeping
We're lying wide awake and dreaming
Wishing that we're with someone else
This bed's as cold as hell

We're only honest when we're sleeping
We're lying wide awake and dreaming
Wishing that we're with someone else
This bed's as cold as hell
When you're lying next to me
