Sleeping Dogs Lie

I don't know why I do this

I don't know why I hide

I don't know why the world outside

Makes me so terrified

Don't know when I became this

A mask trapped in the void

I don't know when to stop

I make myself so paranoid

It's all in vain

I've gone insane

No ifs or maybes

The bitch is crazy

You made the bed

So lie in it

Sleeping dogs

wake up with fleas

And darling,

you laid next to me

Read the Bible

Sued for libel

Notes on paper

Love in vapor

Everything I ever wanted

Somehow always left me haunted

Now that you're tied to my cable

Suicide

So damn unstable

I don't know why I do this

I don't know why I cried

I don't know why here at your side

I feel like I have died

Don't know when I became this

A shelved doll, just a toy

I don't know when to stop

I make myself so paranoid

It's all in vain

I've gone insane

No ifs or maybes

The bitch is crazy

You made the bed

So lie in it

Sleeping dogs

wake up with fleas

And darling,

you laid next to me
