Afraid of the Dark

Trapped in a loop, I know I'm stuck
And I know where I'm gonna end up
Don't sell me those lies
That "I am a fraud", and that "I'm fine"

I know I can't change
If my mistakes
Are the only thing that's
Keeping me this way

Another day, I feel the same
I don't wanna run, cause it hurts me to leave
I'm breaking down, please help me now
I made an oath with the dark to not make a sound

Another day that's put to waste
Get me out, get me out, get me out, get me out
You see the light in my face, but I know that it's fake
I'm afraid of the dark but I can't stay away

Clouds are rolling in
But now's a good time
They don't have an effect
On a flooded mind

Or at least not mine
I'm used to the rain
Without the sunlight

When I'm feeding it
I feel great, but it should be the opposite
Living in addiction
With this obsession, I swear I've got a deathwish
I swear I've got a deathwish

Another day, I feel the same
I don't wanna run, cause it hurts me to leave
I'm breaking down, please help me now
I made an oath with the dark to not make a sound

Another day that's put to waste
Get me out, get me out, get me out, get me out
You see the light in my face, but I know that it's fake
I'm afraid of the dark but I can't stay away

I often question the thoughts that go through my head
And I wonder why I haven't listened to them

I always knew that I'd end up this way
Too numb to fight, and staring at the ceiling
Chasing hope but giving up eventually
Too fragile to fix, don't touch me I'm a broken mess
What have I become?

Always looking for a place a hide
So take off my disguise
Don't look at the glaring lights

With tears behind my masquerade
Inject my body with dopamine
Control my thoughts and watch me bleed
Create new scars that define me

Another day, I feel the same
I don't wanna run, cause it hurts me to leave
I'm breaking down, please help me now
I made an oath with the dark to not make a sound

Another day that's put to waste
Get me out, get me out, get me out, get me out
You see the light in my face, but I know that it's fake
I'm afraid of the dark but I can't stay away
