lyrics

down the corridors of my soul
I hear heavy footsteps echo
oh no, oh no
it’s a monster turning corners
always knockin’ on my heart’s door
hello, hello

you just sit there hoping your heart heals over in time
but you keep it on a shelf
yeah, you keep running from yourself
there is no medicine to fix me that i can find
it’s a living hell
so i keep running from myself

out the corner of my eye
i see a shadow i don’t recognize
oh no, oh no
these shapes are stretching from my feet
i guess this darkness is a part of me
oh no, control

you just sit there hoping your heart heals over in time
but you keep it on a shelf
yeah, you keep running from yourself
there is no medicine to fix me that i can find
it’s a living hell
so i keep running from myself
