You're a little living thing
I put inside a diorama
Fur and tiny insect wings
I watched you from inside the closet
Inside the closet

Sweet reverie, while you sleep, I'll
Give you something to
Hold all my disasters in
Under your skin

La da da da da da

Sweet memory, in too deep
Let me break you in two
Elbows shouldn't bend that way, but it's okay
Don't be afraid

You pretend to be awake
An out of tune voice sighs an excuse
When warm feelings start to ache
Your misfortune has caught up to you

A reason?
No, I don't need a reason
My paper heart is bleeding
A bitterness repeating
Repeating

And you will
Find a way to live like this
A cut out plastic likeness
So suffer here in silence
In silence

Sweet reverie, while you sleep, I'll
Give you something to
Hold all my disasters in
Under your skin

La da da da da da

Sweet memory, in too deep
Let me break you in two
Elbows shouldn't bend that way, but it's okay
Don't be afraid
