She Wakes Up Every Night

Favez

Oh, the hall is lit all the writing 
On the wall, the wit, all the fighting 
She wakes up every night 
Oh, the stink is bad like he's rotting, 
But the sex is nice when he sleeps 

She wakes up every night 
For the role she holds when she's hiding 
She wakes up every night 
When the world is hurting and lost 
And drenched in golden light 
She wakes up every night 

Oh, the hours spent on the ceiling 
Crawling down again when he wakes 
She hopes for nothing at all 
Just a glance 
Then one more 

She wakes up every night 
For the role she holds when she's hiding 
She wakes up every night 
When the world is hurting and lost 
And drenched in golden light 
She wakes up every night
