Heavens sake, if you only knew
Then I think you would feel blue
'Cuz so much has happened to me,
Afraid of even the slightest yell
Skiddish of a church bell
He haunts my dreams nightly.
Scared of what could be
I'm not worth it, you'll see
I don't want to be terrified anymore
Right down to the pills I take
I feel so goddamn fake
In my soul, a hole was tore
If things had gone differently
Then I might be a new me
But then, wishing never works
I want to be so brave
A light in the darkest cave
Because the dark is where he lurks.
