Sleeping With the Lights On Lyrics

My ghosts and monsters they wake me every night
sharp teeth and bad breath whispering your name
I'm not quite lonely feels more like scared to death
your memory haunts me when I put myself to bed
I've been sleeping with the lights on
talking in my sleep and waking to an empty home
I've been sleeping with the lights on since you've been gone
Bella Lugosi and Boris Karloff too
make such strange bedfellows baby how do they know you
they'll stay for hours they'll haunt me all night long
talk about your new love till the crack of dawn yea yea
I've been sleeping with the lights on
talking in my sleep and waking to an empty home
I've been sleeping with the lights on since you've been gone
I know you're not to blame for the shape I'm in (it's a natural refuse)
but how do I explain when it's time to love again monsters are real
I've been sleeping with the lights on
talking in my sleep and waking to an empty home
I've been sleeping with the lights on
talking in my sleep and waking to an empty home
Sleeping with the lights on oh oh baby sleeping with the lights on
talking in my sleep waking to an empty home since you've been gone yea
