Hepburn - Girl at Rest Lyrics

You said, "... someday, it's always something
Oh I think that I'm meant for better things"
I didn't know there were better things
And I sank in the doorway
To the bed I left unmade
So afraid that I made you walk away

But I could never make you do anything
And you could never convince me that you're okay

Did you shut down?
Did you let it out?
As you count your breaths out loud
Or did you disavow here and now
About to break
"Oh for heavens sake"
But heavens so far away
When you're wide awake
And you're chest starts to ache

You know I could never ease the pain
I could never make you do anything

You don't talk with your sister anymore
You said speaking up's not your only chore
You said your love was an open door
Now I believe you, crashing to the floor

Shift your weight
Turn the page
Leave me to keep your place
You're out looking for better things
I never knew there were better things
Oh I could see it in your eyes
You're not sleeping here tonight
Tell me I'll be alright
Tell me
