The Dolls Are Sleeping

John Hahn, Oliver Wood

Came into my room
Lookin' like death
Wild look in his eyes
Liquor on his breath
He said, "Lay still
Don't make a fuss"
My old teddy bear sittin' there looking at us

The dolls are sleepin'
Right next to me
The dolls are sleepin'

Close my eyes
Tryin' to pray
But his face
Never goes away
Try to stop hatin'
I know I must
But how do you love
When you can't trust?

And the dolls are sleepin'
Up on the shelf
Keepin' those secrets
All to themselves
The dolls are sleepin'

Who's gonna believe in my truth?
Who's gonna believe, where's the proof?
The dolls are sleepin'

Now the dolls are sleepin'
In a secondhand store
Won't be no secrets
Anymore

And if that night
I had no choice
Well, I know
I found my voice
The dolls are sleepin'
The dolls are sleepin'
The dolls are sleepin'
Dolls are sleepin'
Dolls are sleepin'
