Guilt obstructed memories
A sketch of what unraveled me
Her life drips from my fingertips
A scream is bleeding from her lips

The monsters lurking in my head
Feel far too real to be dead
Voices corner memories
A sketch of what destroyed me

I don’t know how to silence the darkness
Poison contagion rests where my heart is
I’d rather be crazy
Than live inside this toxic memory

Don’t step too close, I don’t want to hurt you
I’m dangerous. It’s all I know is true
Shadows clear for your eyes
My darkness cowers from your light

Drain my blood, turn it to smoke
Dangling from the end of my rope
Can’t separate visions from sight
Monsters not exclusive to night

Haunted so long as I’m alive
Can’t admonish the best inside
Lethal memories reborn
Not trapped in my head anymore

I don’t know how to silence the darkness
Poison contagion rests where my heart is
I’d rather be crazy
Than live inside this toxic memory

Don’t step too close, I don’t want to hurt you
I’m dangerous, it’s all I know is true
Shadows clear for your eyes
My darkness cowers from your light

Reality is growing dim
Certainty is wearing thin
The murderer under my skin
Is taking over everything

Break me out of this labyrinth
There’s blood smeared on the walls
They’re drawing closer, closing in
They’ll crumble, and we’ll fall

I don’t know how to silence the darkness
Poison contagion rests where my heart is
I’d rather be crazy
Than live inside this toxic memory

Don’t step too close, I don’t want to hurt you
I’m dangerous, it’s all I know is true
Shadows clear for your eyes
My darkness cowers from your light
