[Verse 1]

This fear

It shouldn't appear in my veins

Yet it remains my ally in self-decay

I'm dug in deep here

Four walls will keep us secure

Year after year


[Pre-Chorus]

Afraid of the world we all pose like children

Suspicion won't kill them

Let's lay our heads atop of the bed, 'cause I'm sick of the way we're living

I can't believe that we still deceive this looking glass as vision

There is always a safe haven at home

Best case scenario we'll still be miserable


[Chorus]

Bury me below

My mind's a ticking time bomb so I'll bury it below

My eyes are tired of glaring through lifeless windows

Your future's at risk unless you open the door

Disclose the contents of your heart on the floor


[Bridge]

I can never regret you

I would never forget this floor

I can never forget all the times we've spent indoors


[Verse 2]

At least we were safe in there

Away from the worries and the cares

At least we were safe in there

Diverse from the rest of the Earth

At the seams we tear

The reason I've been living a lie

Is I would rather stare at life outside a window than die


[Bridge]

So tear away from the dotted line where you slept so close to me

I will one day leave this place


[Pre-Chorus]

Afraid of the world we all pose like children

Suspicion won't kill them

Let's lay our heads atop of the bed, 'cause I'm sick of the way we're living

I can't believe that we still deceive this looking glass as vision

There is always a safe haven at home

Best case scenario we'll still be miserable


[Chorus]

Bury me below

My mind's a ticking time bomb so I'll bury it below

My eyes are tired of glaring through lifeless windows

Your future's at risk unless you open the door

Disclose the contents of your heart on the floor

The reason I've been living a lie

Is I would rather stare at life outside a window than die
