If only I could remember my dreams
I’d tell you it’s not as fun as it seems
Not as fun as it seems
My monsters are buried deep
Only come out when I am asleep
In the moonlight they’re playing with me
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
Last night I arose from the dead
When my feet couldn’t move I saw you by the bed
Your shadow arms behind my back holding me tight
I knew I was supposed to run but I didn’t hide
They say you can control your thoughts if you want it bad enough
So why doesn’t it work for me?
(No matter where I aim, I end up losing the game)
They say kill that which causes you pain
So I am numbing my brain
I just need a moment of peace
(Separate me from my mind)
Won’t you grant me a sweet release
(There is chaos inside)
I hope for you all that I’m one of a kind
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark

Lost in You

I fall in love
Get crushed every time
What can I say I like to play
Tricks on my mind
A sucker for fate
I live for the odds
It will fall in place
I’m playing my part
Eventually
The misery
Makes sense to me
I’m holding on
You holding me
Under the trees
I’m hiding behind
The sky turning red and blue
Losing myself
Just like I always do
I get lost again
Lost in you
Look back at my every move
Wish I didn’t leave so soon
Realize I know nothing about you
My regret, just like the sea
Comes in waves, it’s haunting me
Like the tides it draws me to the moon
Eventually
The misery
Makes sense to me
I’m holding on
You holding me
Under the trees
I’m hiding behind
The sky turning red and blue
Losing myself
Just like I always do
I get lost again
Lost in you
I get lost again (so lost)
Lost in you (so lost)
I get lost again (so lost)
No way out
I’m lost in you

Bedroom Floor

I feel alone
When you talk about your feelings
And I can’t relate
To anything you say
Sometimes I wish I would have stayed with you
But then again not every wish should come true
Why does it hurt me so much when you talk about her?
We’re supposed to be just friends, I thought that we were
Now I’m crying on the bedroom floor
And I don’t think that you should be with her
I feel alone
When you tell me how you need her
And I can’t relate
When you call it fate
Sometimes I wish that you could read my mind
But then again some things are better off inside
Why does it hurt me so much when you talk about her?
We’re supposed to be just friends, I thought that we were
Now I’m crying on the bedroom floor
And I don’t think you should be with her
Oh, I want to be selfish
And I want you to stay
Though I moved on before you
And I gave you away
I can’t take it back now
I know it’s too late
Sometimes I wanna tell you what we could have had
But then again some things are better off unsaid
Why does it hurt me so much when you talk about her?
We’re supposed to be just friends, I thought that we were
Now I’m crying
On the bedroom floor
And I don’t think
That you should be with her

Lonely Soul

I spend my nights outside alone
More than usual these days
I wallow in your face
I don’t need more than just a glance
Open up at every chance
I don’t think twice and I don’t wait
For anyone to reciprocate
I let you in just like I let the others in before
Even though they hurt me I don’t ever close that door
I let you in just like I let the others in before
Even though they hurt me I don’t ever close that door
I let them all in
Even though most of them
Wreak havoc in my brain
It’s driving me insane
I don’t ever want to change
This casual world, it messes me up
I can’t trust my gut
Though I already know way too soon
I’ll be searching the night sky for the moon
I let you in just like I let the others in before
Even though they hurt me I don’t ever close that door
I let you in just like I let the others in before
Even though it pains me I don’t ever close that door
I tried forcing a connection
What a painful waste of time
Some say empathy’s a blessing
It depends on who you’re asking
All this distance when we’re talking hidden in a pretty smile
You’re letting me down easy it still makes me want to hurl
I let you in just like I let the others in before
Even though they hurt me I don’t ever close that door
I let you in just like I let the others in before
Even though it pains me I don’t ever close that door
