Lyrics Nightmares - CHVRCHES

Nightmares

I get the last word
Only because I write on the walls in my head
Maybe some things are better unsaid
To be left on the sheets of your bed

Can I forgive if I forget
All my mistakes and my regrets?
If all of this is for the best

I've been singing that song again
Another ballad that won't make amends
It's been giving me nightmares again
And they don't end
I've been singing along again
Another poem designed for revenge
Now I'm living the nightmare again
And it won't end

Pity the actor canning the laughter
I know I waited too long
I played so dumb, I was under the thumb
A conclusion far too foregone

Can I forgive if I forget
All my mistakes and my regrets?
If all of this is for the best

I've been singing that song again
Another ballad that won't make amends
It's been giving me nightmares again
And they don't end
I've been singing along again
Another poem designed for revenge
Now I'm living the nightmare again
And it won't end

For, for, forgiving
For, for, forgetting
For, for, forgiving
For, for, forgetting

I've been singing that song again
Another ballad that won't make amends
It's been giving me nightmares again
And they don't end
I've been singing along again
Another poem designed for revenge
Now I'm living the nightmare again
And it won't end

For, for, forgiving
For, for, forgetting
For, for, forgiving
For, for, forgetting
For, for, forgiving
For, for, forgetting
For, for, forgiving
For, for, forgetting
