Every time the lights go off in this home
I can hear the songs of ghosts flow through the wall
And it's easy to see that I'm never afraid
And I don't need anyone to stop the flow of fear through my veins
But the truth is that I hold my breath and sleep
I know that I am far to weak to
Keep these teeth and hands from shaking
I've become a coward in his sheets
A broken windowsill is all that keeps my soul from soaring
Please just give one minute
So I can prove to you that I'm not crazy
I've been dreaming for so long
It's a shame to waste this fear of closing patterns down
Can't start to change who we are
Even though we've come so far
We'll break the light so no one has to know
Breathe deep and let is hurt
Take it in for all it's worth
Cause' it will all be gone before we know it

The beauty of this night is haunting me inside
Watch me as I drown in this horrible sound
The beauty of this night is haunting me inside (please just give one minute)
(So I can prove to you that I'm not crazy)
Watch me as I drown in this horrible sound (I've been dreaming for so long)
(It's a shame to waste this fear of closing down)
A momentary breath is held as I step back
To make sure my heart is still beating strong
Can't start to change who we are
Even though we've come so far
We'll break the light so no one has to know
Breathe deep and let is hurt
Take it in for all it's worth
'Cause it will all be gone before we know it
There's a secret in the air, that whispers in my ear
A story bound to last much longer than 18 years
There's nothing I can do
But hold my breath and drown
Drown in this horrible sound
There's nothing I can do
But hold my breath and drown
Can't start to change who we are
Even though we've come so far
We'll break the light so no one has to know
Breathe deep and let is hurt
Take it in for all it's worth
'Cause it will all be gone before we know it
