A rising suspicion Has driven her to ask her self Is there someone else he sees? And does she satisfy all of his needs?
[Pre-chorus 1:] He comes home late from work She turns the light off after 10 He enters without a word Her patience starts to wear again Her assumptions deceive her eyes
[Chorus:] She sleeps with one eye closed at night She keeps her arms around him tight With hope that she will wake up lying next to him She sleeps with one eye closed at night She keeps him always in her sight But when he’s gone, his absence makes her whole world spin
Deciding her mission In a plot at his expense With all her spiteful plans His life is stuck between her hands
[Pre-chorus 2:] She pretends like nothing’s wrong He’s quick to dismiss every sign This has lasted way too long He still thinks that everything is fine Her assumptions deceive her eyes
[Bridge 1:] She can’t, accept He was always faithful He won’t, expect An act this hateful
[Bridge 2:] Suffocate, your love He’ll never sleep with someone new Suffocate, your love He’ll always be there next to you And if he never sees another day At least you know he’ll always stay with you Suffocate, your love He’ll never wake again
[Last Chorus:] She slept with one eye closed at night She kept her arms around him tight But now she knows she’ll wake up lying next to him She slept with one eye closed at night She kept him always in her sight But now she knows he’ll never leave her side ever Again, never, again, never, again
