[Verse 1] Ashtray morning Coffee gone cold You say you’re fine I don’t feel told Static in the kitchen light Shadows on the hallway wall You laugh like you’re alright But you don’t laugh at all [Chorus] The sky hangs low Like a promise wrapped in a nightmare Clouds sink down Tangled in your hair You say “it’s nothing” But it stains the air The sky hangs low Like a promise wrapped in a nightmare (oh, it’s right there) [Verse 2] Phone face down Buzzing in the drawer Your boots by the door You’re not sure what for Smoke ring halos Never reach the fan You say you had a plan But it slipped from your hand [Chorus] The sky hangs low Like a promise wrapped in a nightmare Clouds sink down Tangled in your hair You say “it’s nothing” But it stains the air The sky hangs low Like a promise wrapped in a nightmare (can’t wake from here) [Bridge] You paint your lashes blacker Than the night at four p.m Say you’re just dramatic I say “here we go again” But my voice gets caught In the ceiling cracks Every word drips down And never comes back [Chorus] The sky hangs low Like a promise wrapped in a nightmare Clouds sink down Tangled in your hair You say “it’s nothing” But it stains the air The sky hangs low Like a promise wrapped in a nightmare We lie so still Till the room disappears The sky hangs low Like a promise wrapped in a nightmare
