lyrics

I’M AFRAID OF LIFE
SCREAMING AND PSYCHIC TORTURE
I DON’T WANT TO GO;
HOME IS WHERE I FEEL LEAST SAFE

I KNOW I AM SAFE
BUT WHY CAN’T I STOP SHAKING?
I’M LOOSING MY MIND
AND MY MEMORIES ARE GONE

IT’S BETTER THAT WAY
EACH NIGHT RELIVING MY FEARS
MY NIGHTMARE WAS REAL
THINGS I IMAGINED WERE TOO

FLASHBACKS ARE COMMON
THE FUTURE IS FULL OF THEM
WALKING ON EGGSHELLS
NEW MEMORIES ARE HATCHING

I’VE REACHED MY LIMIT
I’M TIRED OF THIS ABUSE.
I’M NOT GONNA BE
A VICTIM OF CIRCUMSTANCE
THIS ENDS NOW. NO MORE. I’M DONE.
