You're Not The One

[Verse 1]
I lie awake in the morning
For hours counting sheep
You came to me with no warning
And I'm too shaken now to go back to sleep

[Verse 2]
Closing my eyes, I am drifting
And then I jolt awake so fast
There is no rest in reliving
No light in the shadow you cast
[Pre-Chorus]
Get out of my mind, leave me alone
Why won't you just let me sleep?

[Chorus]
You're not the one I should be dreaming of
You're not the one who's memories should haunt
I let you go so why don't you just stay gone?
You're not the one that I should want
You're not the one that I should want

[Verse 3]
Lone bone digger, keep digging
Turn my fragile mind upside down
My body is here with the living
And my thoughts buried deep in the ground

[Pre-Chorus 2]
What do you need to let me move on?
Why won't you just let me sleep?
Night after nightmare, dusk until dawn
Your face is all that I see

[Chorus]
You're not the one I should be dreaming of
You're not the one who's memories should haunt
I let you go so why don't you just stay gone?
You're not the one that I should want
You're not the one that I should want

[Bridge]
How did I become a prisoner?
How did I become so full of grief?
I don't know how I can lie there next to someone else
And let you steal the joy from me
Somehow you break down all the walls I constructed
Stiring up all these old feelings
How did I become so weak?
Will I ever go back to sleep?
You probably don't even know
What you've done to me

[Chorus]
You're not the one I should be dreaming of
Oh, you're not the one who's memories should haunt
I let you go so why don't you just stay gone?
You're not the one that I should want
You're not the one that I should want

[Outro]
No, you're not the one that I should want
