Prompt / Lyrics
(Verse 1) I kicked you out, slammed the door, But your scent still lives in the floor. I sleep on the sofa with the lights on low, Afraid to close my eyes, afraid you’ll show. --- (Verse 2) Your texts still come at 2AM, "Baby, I’m sorry," like you mean it again. You say you love me, you always did — Then why did your love feel like punishment? I see your shadow in the grocery line, Move away from strangers, every time. Even when you're not around, You’re the echo in this town. --- (Chorus) I can’t sleep in our bed, Too many ghosts in the sheets you left. You haunt the hallways in my head, And I keep breaking instead of rest. Took pills just to quiet the noise, But dreams still scream in your voice. I’m not okay — I just pretend, I can’t sleep in our bed again. --- (Verse 3) Walk the streets, I flinch at stares, Pull my coat tight, breathe cold air. You’re not here but I still brace, For someone else to take your place. Your name rings out from random lips, I freeze, I panic, I bite my fists. You’re gone, but I’m not free — You're in every guy who looks at me. --- (Pre-Chorus) I tell my friends that I’m doing fine, But I keep hearing footsteps at night. You're not here, but it’s not true — You live in everything I do. --- (Chorus) I can’t sleep in our bed, Too many ghosts in the sheets you left. You haunt the hallways in my head, And I keep breaking instead of rest. Took pills just to quiet the noise, But dreams still scream in your voice. I’m not okay — I just pretend, I can’t sleep in our bed again. --- (Bridge) I reread your "I miss you" lines, Like maybe this time, you'd mean it right. But I know better and worse at once, Still scanning crowds for your ghost at lunch. Can’t trust a smile, can’t take a drink, Always looking over my shoulder to think — Are you watching, are you near? I carry love like it’s laced with fear. --- (Final Chorus) I can’t sleep in our bed, Memories tangled where we once slept. I lock the doors, I hide instead, Still waiting for peace I haven’t met. Took pills just to silence the past, But nothing numbs what doesn’t pass. I’m not healed — I just pretend, I can’t sleep in our bed again. --- (Outro - soft & raw) I changed the sheets… But I still feel you. Even here… You're everywhere.
