Sleeping Pill - Elli Ingram

You put me to sleep

The night I set my heart free

Some sweet fuckery to tell me gently I’m not what you needed

I guess it’s not for the best

To lay my head next to this

You liar, denier, this tongue twisted fire, I watch the smoke rise

A man that’s too tired

To say how he feels

Quick honey, pass me one more sleeping pill

Just say what you mean

Explain it to me

'Cause I’m lost looking for love

With my eyes blindfolded

But what good does regret do

When I’m still naked in your bedroom?

Lay my head down with you

Sweet dreams, my love

Let me sleep, my darling

My hands are cold, I’m trying

To paint you and me in a colourful dream

Don’t you ruin my plans

Can you really dismiss the sweet taste of my lips?

You liar, denier, this tongue twisted fire, we watch the smoke rise
