Hold me tight.
Rock me to sleep with your lullaby
God only knows how I need you tonight.
I'm scared of my reflection.

Sing so sweet.
Bring me calm, hope, some kind of peace.
You hold my heart with loving ease.
But I'm scared of myself and these emotions.

I'm so terrified.
Caught myself up in all these lies.
My emotions control until I die.
It's why I need you.

Emotions are free.
Ripping with pain and destroying me.
I'm screaming at the wall where you can't see,
How fragile I am.

Muzzle my cries.
So lost in the holocaust behind my eyes.
Never has the dark been so full of spies.
The night that once protected me.

I scare myself.
I can tell you but no one else.
Can't see past my personal hell
For any light.

I'm terrified
So much I hid and silently cried
So quick I silently lied.
So afraid to ask for help.

I'm so fucking alone.
In my head there is no home.
Comatose cold down in my bones.
I just give up.

My last breath to take.
My final scream and final stand to make
My nails across my eyes will rake
Praying the sacrilege of the long dead

In these midnight hours
I'm awash in the showers
Of mighty and evil powers
Becoming the beast with no soul

I need morning light
To begin some kind of new life
Living it in terror of the night.
Where I'll destroy myself again.
