Came home sat alone in my room went to bed
Why won't these voices leave my head
I wish that I could sleep
Instead of wondering what's wrong with me
I wish they would leave
I wish I couldn't think
I wish they could see
What they do to me
Now it's just me and my thoughts
Sitting on the ground waiting to rot
What can't they hear my screams
Oh I wish they could see
I wish they would leave
I wish I couldn't think
I wish they could see
What they do to me
ooooooaaahhh (x4)

Started at the age of nine
Terrified at the sight of legs in the sky
And little girls in mid air
Hoping one day they'll get there
But oh
They don't see
What they could do or be
And oh
They don't know
That their whole life is just for show
As the age hours grow
As well as the pain from their fingers to their toes
If only people would see
The conditions in which they're expected to breathe
But oh
They don't see
What they could do or be
And oh
They don't know
That their whole life is just for show
With their perfect teeth and red lips
Perfect posture to their fingertips
High jumps and super lifts
Straight legs and perfect hands
Yet no one ever takes a glance
At the pain in their eyes from when they tried
But oh
They don't see
What they could do or be
And oh
They don't know
That their whole life is just for show

Everyone is starting at us
Saying we're acting a little sus
They're just handholds and little hugs
Nothing else it's just for fun
At parties we'd cuddle in each others lap
Put our arms around another
And that was that
Everyone thought we were too close
But what the heck did they know
Months pass and we're still the same
Back in science playing our favorite game
And laughing up a storm every day
I'm glad you stayed
At parties we'd cuddle in each others lap
Put our arms around another
And that was that
Everyone thought we were too close
But what the heck did they know
A year goes by
We fade
I thought we had another day
Though things are different I hope
One day we could go back to you know
Parties where we'd cuddle in each others lap
Put our arms around each other
And that was that
And people saying we're too close
But what the heck did they know

Walking down the street on a normal Sunday
Sun starts to set but those feelings won't go away
Souls arise from their moldy graves
Roaming the earth just like the good old days
And I
Don't know
Whether I should run or face the dark old soul
And I
Don't know
Whether i'll get home safe or wake up under a stone
ooooo (x3)
They say
I'm insane
There's nothing there
Just look the other way
What they don't see is
Who they are
Reflections chasing us
In the stars
And I
Don't know
Whether I should run or face the dark old soul
And I
Don't know
Whether i'll get home safe or wake up under a stone
And I
I
I'm starting to fear for my life
And I
I
Don't know if i'll make it back alive
