Lyrics Flatsound – Counting Sheep
Text:
Summer time was not a lie, but
Just a feeling that we got
And I know you feel alone too
But this heat is not for us
I know I wanted to go
Into the valley where it snows
But I realized
This place is too cold to live my life
I’m sorry, sorry I couldn’t go
On with these lies while I’m kissing your nose
I wasn’t ready, I should have known
That this would happen
So let’s stop these words, they’re turning cold
Let’s treat this goodbye like a simple hello
You’re still so young, you have room to grow
Into something amazing
You’ll sleep tight, I know this feels right
But there’s something you should understand
When the leaves change, after three days
You won’t remember who I am
I’m not calling you out
It’s just you sound like her when you open your mouth
And I can’t live with the chance
That this feeling’s ever coming back
So no, you’re not what I need
Those words you say, they’re the orange in the trees
And I just need to sleep
I’m so sick of always counting sheep
I’ve been feeling so ill, is this all in my thoughts?
This feeling I get when I want you to rot
If we see each other, we won’t stop and stare
Yeah, I’d rather you treat me like I wasn’t there
I don’t hate you, but honey, this still hurts
So I still have the things that we’ve had from the start
This pen in my pocket, this rusted guitar
And the courage to sing this pain away
