  • If I don't recover
    Sell this house and find
    Something lost outside your window
    Not forever
    But on the night I die
    I swear I'll sleep outside your window

    I feel the knife going in
    I'm feeling anxious
    Not enough to kill me
    I thought it'd happen fast
    But I'm feeling it now
    And I feel anxious
    Sleeping inches from me
    I let it pass

    Emy, should I stop?
    Do you think I'll make it
    To the morning if it's written?
    Stitch it up
    The kind of song I know
    Causes mother, sister, lover worry

    I feel the knife going in
    I'm feeling anxious
    Not enough to kill me
    I thought it'd happen fast
    But I'm feeling it now
    And I feel anxious
    Sleeping inches from me
    I let it pass

    I feel the knife going in
    I'm feeling anxious
    Not enough to kill me
    I thought it'd happen fast
    But I'm feeling it now
    And I feel anxious
    Sleeping inches from me
    I let it pass

    I feel the knife going in
    I'm feeling anxious
    Not enough to kill me
    I thought it'd happen fast
    But I'm feeling it now
    And I feel anxious
    Sleeping inches from me
    I let it pass Writer/s: Sara Keirsten Quin, Tegan Rain Quin
