Lyrics

I watched you go out the door

I observed you leaving through the door

With poise I'd seen before

With a composure I had witnessed previously

I saw you shine

I witnessed your brilliance

You shined

You radiated with brightness

I collapsed to the floor

I fell to the ground

It promised it'd miss me more

It assured me that it would miss me more

And said your love is mine

And claimed your love belongs to me

I missed you

I longed for you

Did you miss me

Did you long for me


Slowly its consuming me

Gradually, it is enveloping and overwhelming me

Deliberate and deep

Purposeful and profound

I can't take this deeper panic

I cannot endure this profound panic

Teach me, teach me not to dream

Instruct me, advise me not to dream

Dream deeply.

Dream profoundly


I haven't left here for days

I haven't left this place for days

My panic keeps me awake

My anxiety keeps me from sleeping

As he unwinds inside

As it unfolds within me

He told me I should have known

He informed me that I should have realized

That he hated the way I'd grown

That he despised the way I had developed

To loves surmise

To the assumption of love

She lied.

She lied

Do you miss her?

Do you long for her?

Like I missed you

As I longed for you


Slowly its consuming me

Gradually, it is enveloping and overwhelming me

Deliberate and deep

Purposeful and profound

I can't take this deeper panic

I cannot endure this profound panic

Teach me, teach me not to dream

Instruct me, advise me not to dream

Dream deeply.

Dream profoundly


Slowly its consuming me

Gradually, it is enveloping and overwhelming me

Deliberate and deep

Purposeful and profound

I can't take this deeper panic

I cannot endure this profound panic

Teach me, teach me not to dream

Instruct me, advise me not to dream

Dream deeply.

Dream profoundly


Slowly I'd swallow your fears

Gradually, I would internalize your anxieties

For all of those years

For all those years

How could you let that consume me

How could you let that overwhelm me

Teach me how you sleep so sweetly

Instruct me how you sleep so peacefully


Slowly its consuming me

Gradually, it is enveloping and overwhelming me

Deliberate and deep

Purposeful and profound

I can't take this deeper panic

I cannot endure this profound panic

Teach me how you sleep so sweetly

Instruct me how you sleep so peacefully
