Lyrics for one eye open
(I sleep with one eye open) (Open) My hands are cold as pavement I'm changing To ice, ice I'm counting all the places Your face is A knife, a knife Let's pretend We don't know how this ends We could leave it for dead But you're so persistent I sleep with one eye open I hear you heavy breathing through the door You dream of my devotion It kills you I don't need it anymore You keep me Uneasy Just leave me Alone I sleep with one eye open Open Open I'm trapped in your good graces Abrasive I fight, fight I'm forced to be your favorite Just say goodbye Bye Let's pretend We don't know how this ends We could leave it for dead But you're so persistent I sleep with one eye open I hear you heavy breathing through the door You dream of my devotion It kills you I don't need it anymore You keep me Uneasy Just leave me Alone I sleep with one eye open Open Open And as I lay My head to rest I take a blade To my chest I try to pray I'm out of breath I drift away I'm self possessed
