Lyrics:
How do you fall asleep without me here?
I see right through you, you I see you so clear 
Wake up my demons and my biggest fears 
Are you in love with me or the idea?
 
Too many skeletons in my closet 
God if you listening, you need to call me 
Drunk off a feeling, I don’t wanna stop it
What is then meaning?
Swear the drugs don’t help me, its a problem 
This aint love, i don’t know what to call it 
Run and tell your girlfriends that you hate me 
I think we’re too far from saving 
Same old story - 
Hollywood’s on fire 
3 nights in a row doing blow are you tired?
Tell me…
How do you fall asleep without me here?
I see right through you, I see you so clear 
Wake up my demons and my biggest fears 
Are you in love with me or the idea?
 
Are you in love with me or the idea?
 
Too many bridges, I
I done burned up 
Why you only hittin me when you’re turnt up?
Hearts made of plastic, it aint real love 
What is the meaning?
Swear that you don’t really need me, just the moment 
Go head crop me from the photos
Run and tell your girlfriends that you hate me
I know we’re too far from saving 
Are you in love with the heartbreak?
It’s tough cause when I saw you last week, you were looking pretty rough 
And it’s the same old story - 
Hollywood’s on fire 
3 nights in a row doing blow are you tired?
Tell me…
How do you fall asleep without me here?
I see right through you, you I see you so clear 
Wake up my demons and my biggest fears 
Are you in love with me or the idea?
 
Look at this mess all around me
You should have left how you found me 
Death is easy, life is hard
I hate how this ending is sounding 
You left your cigarette burning on top of the pictures
You hurt me 
Death is easy, life is hard and living without you is worse for me, so…
