lyrics

"Do you feel like you're dying?"
"Would you like to be alone?"
Were the careless retorts that tortured her at home
Such ignorant words and weak power of will
Mother pushing downfall pretending all is well

She said I ain't sleeping
These walls they close in tight almost every night
To myself I sing 'I won't tell, I won't tell
Seize this one opportunity when you just lie to me
Say "I won't tell"
Eyes are bleeding their light
My thoughts don't turn out right

All you know of her life is wrapped right around her wrist
Carefully exposed, you'll never question this
Deny her a thought, but judge on a whim
Pretty little shell, taking in too much sin

She said I ain't sleeping
These walls they close in tight almost every night
To myself I sing 'I won't tell, I won't tell
Seize this one opportunity when you just lie to me
Say "I won't tell"
Eyes are bleeding their light
My thoughts don't turn out right

Try to play the part of the hero
But the mask never fits
You've fucked it all again
The faces will change but the story will stay the same
