Eliza Shaddad - The Man I Admire Lyrics

I was dreaming last night of molten figures waiting by my window
I was hoping you would save me from the dark
Instead you hid under your pillow
And I thought to myself how could you
Hide your head when your house is on fire?
Darling I know you feel blue
But where is the man I admire?
I was screaming last night at cartoon critters climbing up my curtains
I was hoping you would save me from the smoke
Instead you undid your shirt
Oh I paused and I thought to myself
Oh those demons are really whispering
And they don't seem good for my health
And ain't in the mood for listening
So I just came back into bed
And I covered up my yellow head
And said let's pretend we're asleep instead
And you nodded till you nodded off
