  • I've been sleeping with the lights on
    'Cause the darkness is surrounding you
    This is my world, this is my choice
    And you're the drug that gets me through

    I've been waiting for an answer
    Because I built this bed for two
    I'm just waiting on your answer
    I built this bed for me and you

    Could you see that I am yours?
    So will you be my life support?
    You're my life support

    Sick of waking up in darkness
    When the sky is always painted blue
    There's a method to my madness
    It's clear that you don't have a clue

    I've been waiting for an answer
    Because I built this bed for two
    I'm just waiting on your answer
    I built this bed for me and you

    Could you see that I am yours?
    So will you be my life support?
    You're my life support

    Can't you see that I am yours?
    So will you be my life support?
    I've been sleeping with the lights on
    'Cause the darkness is surrounding you Writer/s: Benjamin Ross Ash, Sam Smith
