Sleep tight princess
Are you hiding something or just cradled like a fetus
Cus I can tell theres something in between us
And I’ll remain silent for undisclosed reasons
Sleep tight princess cus baby it’s just a sickness
Sleep tight princess cus baby it’s just a sickness
Sleep tight princess … It’s just a sickness

I don’t want to be the thorn that pricks the tip of your finger
But I want to taste that blood that defines our existence
I watch you sleep tight princess I hope you can forgive this
I mark my words with the same blood you mark your body with
I can sleep a hell of a better now knowing I exist
But my side of the bed is cold just like the shoulder I get
Sleep tight princess, I hope you can forgive this
Sleep tight princess

Sleep tight princess
Are you hiding something or just cradled like a fetus
Cus I can tell theres something in between us
And I’ll remain silent for undisclosed reasons
Sleep tight princess cus baby it’s just a sickness
Sleep tight princess cus baby it’s just a sickness
Sleep tight princess … It’s just a sickness

Sleep Tight Princess

This is short and may be repetitive to some, I actually put a rock twist to this song. Wish I had a recording to show. Maybe in the future and also may add another verse. This is actually one of my favorite things to date. So simple but says so much. Just remember this next time your laying in bed back to back with someone you love in a room full of angst.
