Lyrics

Black

I tell lies.
If I didn't you'd be horrified.
I'd rather die
Than have you find out what I'm trying to hide.
I can't escape
These walls I made
Surrounding me.
Underground.
Where creatures replace sight with sound.
Leave me be.
The darkness here is comforting.
I can't escape
These walls I made
Containing me.
