lyrics

Patience is crucial in this place
Hide and seek from an unkind face
In the corner of a room seemingly empty
Hidden behind the door with every intention to stop breathing
If it means that I won't be found
I've always been scared of the dark but it's all that I look for now

Just so I will stay safe from sharpened teeth
Ripping up my scarred skin just to watch me bleed
I never really feel secure - I don't want to be scared anymore

I was always terrified of the darkness but I found something worse to fear
Just 'cause living in the shadows is not what I wanted
Doesn't mean I don't belong here

I am hidden - I am safe from the rage of a drug-fucked runaway
Maybe I am just a paranoid kid but I never liked playing the victim
I witnessed excuses pour out of my mouth
Only speak to evil if it can't see you
And if I ever needed to push it out, I'd just leave it a dial tone to talk to

Just so I will stay safe from sharpened teeth
Ripping up my scarred skin just to watch me bleed
I don't want to be scared anymore

I was always terrified of the darkness but I found something worse to fear
Just 'cause living in the shadows is not what I wanted
Doesn't mean I don't belong here

Easy to breathe in relief when I hear the front door slam shut
Heart-stopping disbelief to know I'd survived another hunt
You can't make me do anything that you want

I was always terrified...
