I wish I could drift to sleep, it’s all I’d like to do
I stay awake because when I drift off, I find you in here too
Smell of perfume, cigarettes, sweat, and your favorite shampoo
It all sits with me, and makes sure I’ll never forget you.

You just look so gorgeous inside my head
So sweet and nice, obviously a creation of my own instead
Because this vision of you is simply untrue,
How I feel about this girl – well, she definitely isn’t you.
