My Oblivion

I see my oblivion

And you're walking right up to me

You says it's just for fun

And I just smile along playfully

I wonder how long

I can keep lying myself to sleep

I wonder how long

You can act like it doesn't mean anything

I've been in this place before

And I know how I will bleed

I just try to give you more

Because it's the attention you seek

Being hopeful is all I can hope for

I have to stay strong to where this leads

Grace me with your smile

I will do my best to give you it all

Help me escape my denial

It's what you deserve after all
I think you feel the same as I do

But you're afraid to admit the way feel

Because you haven't had proper time to heal

I can't get the thought of you kissing me and falling asleep on my chest

Out of my head...

I can't get the thoughts of what you make me want to do to you

Out of my head...

What if I could replace him though!?

I just want you to feel at home.

In my arms...

I see my oblivion

And you're walking right up to me

You says it's just for fun

And I just smile along playfully

I wonder how long

I can keep lying myself to sleep

I wonder how long

You can act like it doesn't mean anything

The more you give me; the more I want

I don't want to stop

The more you touch me; the more I crave

Because it's the attention that you need

I don't want you to be another regret

But I don't want to wonder what could have been

Even if it's a hopeful thought

It helps me sleep tonight

And if you seek my attention

I will help you sleep tonight

Listen to the beat of my heart

It races for your touch

Rest your head on my chest

I will keep you safe tonight

You kiss me like you need it more than I

And I will keep you safe

If you let me protect you

No one will harm you while I survive

I kiss you like it's my last night alive

And I will keep you safe

With every last breathe

No one will harm you while I survive

I see my oblivion

(It helps me sleep tonight)

You says it's just for fun

(I will help you sleep tonight)

I wonder how long

(Rest your head on my chest)

I can keep lying myself to sleep

(I will hold you while you sleep tonight)

I wonder how long

(Rest your head on my neck)

You can act like it doesn't mean anything

(I will keep you safe tonight)

Sleep soundly in my arms tonight...
