Bright eyes from head lights
In hope to find the place we used to sleep
I will do everything to fix this
Swear I can change
Don’t let this fade
My trembling lips don’t
Hide the hell that’s streaming down your face
You can’t do anything to fix this
I hear you say
Too far away
Tell me it’s different and mean what you say
You won’t leave me hanging
And you’re not afraid
Don’t ask me
Don’t ask me why
Why I wait for someone that won’t show
Don’t ask me
Don’t ask me how
How I stay awake when your fast asleep
In a dream that does not involve me
Red eyes from tail lights
And open ended promises we made
I scream
We could have fixed this
Ended our pain
Don’t drive away
You know I’ll wait
Don’t ask me
Don’t ask me why
Why I wait for someone that won’t show
Don’t ask me
Don’t ask me how
How I stay awake when your fast asleep
In a dream that does not involve me
It’s hard to sleep these days
Left with a ghost and it won’t go away
It’s all that I have left
This wishful thinking
Is hopeless today
And that may not change
Don’t ask me
Don’t ask me why
Why I wait for someone that won’t show
Don’t ask me
Don’t ask me how
How I stay awake when your fast asleep
In a dream that does not involve me
