[Verse 1]

In an empty room

Inside a haunted house I waste, away

Nothing getting in

There’s nothing coming out I fade to grey


[Chorus]

All the memories I’ve been pushing out of my head

I need to face the pain, I never did

But if I open this door I won't really know what’s ahead

I don’t know how to feel, afraid to live


[Verse 2]

I wanna shut my eyes

I wanna live inside the dream, awake

But when I close my eyes

It's just a twisted mess I can't escape


[Chorus]

All the memories I keep pushing out of my head

I want to face the pain, I never did

But if I open this door I won't really know what’s ahead

I don’t know how to feel, afraid to live


[Bridge]

Running from the heartbreak of the night

It's an illusion of a life

I tremble with desire

Strangling the grief out of the light

It's an illusion of a life

I long to feel the fire


[Outro]

All the memories I keep pushing out of my head

I need to face the pain
