You sleep - Artificial Leader

Verse 1: You sleep so peacefully, never knowing the truth, I'm stuck in silence, while my heart's in a loop. You with him, I'm just a shadow in the night, Can't tell you how I feel, gotta keep it tight. Every glance, every word, it’s a game I can't win, Falling deeper every day, but where do I begin? You're in my thoughts, but I stay out of sight, Hiding all these feelings, like it’s wrong, but it’s right. Chorus: And you sleep, while I’m wide awake, These thoughts of you, girl, are more than I can take. You don't know, but I’m losing my mind, Love's a silent battle, and I'm losing time. Verse 2: Weeks go by, and I still can't let go, Your smile's the only thing that I truly know. You light up the room, but I'm stuck in the dark, Wishing I could tell you, but don’t know where to start. I see you with him, and it tears me apart, But I’ll keep it inside, though it's breaking my heart. I'm just a friend, or maybe just a ghost, Loving you in silence, that's what hurts the most. Chorus: And you sleep, while I’m wide awake, These thoughts of you, girl, are more than I can take. You don't know, but I’m losing my mind, Love's a silent battle, and I'm losing time. Verse 3: He’s your man, but I’m here on the side, Keeping all my feelings locked deep inside. Every day is a struggle, but I wear a disguise, Hiding all the pain behind these tired eyes. You laugh with him, and I force a grin, But inside I’m drowning in the love I’m in. I can't be the one to step in your way, So I'll stay in the background, letting you slip away. Chorus: And you sleep, while I’m wide awake, These thoughts of you, girl, are more than I can take. You don't know, but I’m losing my mind, Love's a silent battle, and I'm losing time. Verse 4: It’s getting harder, but I’ll play my role, Acting like I’m fine, though it’s taking its toll. You deserve the world, and I wish I could be, The one who gives you everything, but that’s not me. I’ll keep the secret, won't let it show, Even if it means that I’ll never let you know. So sleep tight, girl, while I stay awake, Dreaming of a love that I can’t ever take. Chorus: And you sleep, while I’m wide awake, These thoughts of you, girl, are more than I can take. You don't know, but I’m losing my mind, Love's a silent battle, and I'm losing time.
