If I could fall back to sleep

If I could fall back to sleep, just for a second

If I could just close my eyes, when will I wake the fuck up

Don't wake up hopeful, no it won't remain

Don't plan your day out, things will change

No, nothing's constant but some things still feel like they are

And those don't go away

Don't move

Don't stray an inch from your fucking room

Though the world is vast, it has no place for you

It has no place for weak-willed attention-seeking victims

You're better off kept to yourself

They all know!

I know it's private

I know it doesn't last, it's just a frame of mind and I can hide it

I know if people ask or if they start to sense that I seem withdrawn I can deny it

If you deny it, it just comes back

Shows on your face, in the way that you act

If you deny it, it just comes back

Shows in your voice when your words start to

Crack the door wide open

(Leave it shut!)

Take a step, take a breath

Just suck it all up

(You're bound to fuck it all up!)

There's an audience watching and they all know

I, I slip through crowds and cities, pass through like vapor

Please don't take notice, meet my gaze, or remark

I'm only trying not to stand out or cross a line

(Once you cross the line, it crosses you out!)

I tear through every wall as though it were paper

I hunt you down and hold your face to the mirror

Is it distorted?

Has it twisted your features?

Oh, they all know!

They all know!

They all know!

They all know!

They all know!

They all know!

They all know!

Stay in!

Where the walls can contain you

Stay in!

Where the covers protect you (No one’s coming to get you)

Stay in!

Where the doors never open

Stay in!

No one's coming to get you
