[Verse 1]Had a dream your father diedI couldn't scream, I couldn't cryThe second night, I dreamt you drownedYou couldn't fight, you were not found[Chorus]These violent delightsKeep creeping into my nightsAnd they're reading my ritesAnd I'll never sleep alone againAnd these violent delightsKeep bleeding into the lightAnd I'll never be rightBut they'll never sleep alone again when I'm goneWhen I'm gone[Verse 2]A photograph will steal your soulAn epitaph won't make you wholeIf I disappear, thеy'll say I killed myselfI nevеr feared for my own health[Chorus]These violent delightsKeep creeping into my nightsAnd they're reading my ritesAnd I'll never sleep alone againAnd these violent delightsKeep bleeding into the lightAnd I'll never be rightBut they'll never sleep alone again when I'm goneWhen I'm gone[Bridge]I don't want to see itI don't want to see itI don't want to sleep alone, noI don't want to see itI don't want to see itNever sleep alone again, noI don't want to see itI don't want to see itI don't want to sleep alone, noI don't want to see itI don't want to see itNever sleep alone again when I'm gone[Chorus]These violent delightsKeep creeping into my nightsAnd they're reading my ritesAnd I'll never sleep alone againAnd these violent delightsKeep bleeding into the lightAnd I'll never be rightBut they'll never sleep alone again when I'm goneWhen I'm goneAlone again when I'm goneWhen I'm gone
