| Crouching down inside a deep ravine
Those angry cries pass quickly by, he can't be seen
So many ways spent hiding in so many undone plans
Forgetting what it's like to fight when no one understands
Close call there in the shadows
There's a fear in the dark
There's one out there
All those memories, pain and anger, flood back one by one
They must be just around the bend, they always come
At night as I lay sleeping they come to me in herds
Their lies remain, the dreams the same, it's only fleeting words
No one calls there in the shadows
There's no end to the dark
There's no one out there, no one but me....
The hours pass so slowly, the life's slipping out of me
No way's the right way. is there a way out for me?
My life's slipping out...
Rising up, the night is done, and now the bright lights come
Held back in my pitied world where everythings undone
A cold wind blows right through me, I'm made a hollow shell
Theres nothing left, just ash remains, enrich the soil, no soul
Close call there in the shadows
There's an end to the dark
There's someone out there
Someone like me...
The hours pass so slowly
The lifes slipping out of me
Is there a way out for me?
The hours pass so slowly
There must be a way out for me... |

| And then the dreams start. The dreams that I wake from, too afraid to close my eyes again. Forced to lay on my back because I can't turn my back to any side of the room. And my mind thinks of everything it can to petrify me. I'm scared to sleep tonight. |

| I was seven and you were nine
I looked at you like the stars that shined
In the sky, the pretty lights
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
Growing up and falling in love and our mamas smiled
And rolled their eyes and said oh my my my
Take me back to the house and the backyard tree
Said you'd beat me up, you were bigger than me
You never did, you never did
Take me back when our world was one block wide
I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
Just two kids, you and I...
Oh my my my my

| Today was a good day. No one stared at me. Or Avoided staring at me Or tried to burn me |

| It's weird how someone who would've used to know everything about you now has no idea whats going on in your life. I don't know who I have anymore |
