lyrics

the lights flickered
and then went out again
i felt the heat close
but did not see it coming when…

you pressed your lips to my
cheek and pulled me close
i slid my hand across your thigh
and thought that I had overdosed…

i am not dreaming
this is what we will
fight about tomorrow
there will be no screaming
just a silence so thick
it equals sorrow.

i don’t regret last night
or other times we caved
and though I hate to fight
it is the effect of what I crave…

in the aftermath
painted a different shade
to pretend indifference
but i don’t lie in the bed you made…

i am not dreaming
this is well worth
fighting for tomorrow
there will be no screaming
i don’t want you
to know my sorrow.
