Bedtime Story

Because you never meant it when you said that it's alright

Because it wasn't really ever what I had in mind

The damages are clear; he takes the pain, I take the fear

Oh what's the devil but a good negotiator?

Because I always meant it when I said it would go wrong

Because I always thought my life would be a sad song

The future's conveyed in all the core before it's played

Oh what am I but a bad story teller?

And when the nights are cold and strangea and all the birds are gone

And all the oil's been spilt, and left us on this earth alone

I think about the time you reassured me, you were mine

Oh what is love but a frail little dreamcatcher?
