I'm too afraid to turn my back to the shadows
Cause when I do I get so paranoid
I'm reminded of men hanging from their gallows
As I start to choke and try to breathe
Every insult said I try to push to the back of my mind
Every arguement I try to wipe it away
Every bad choice I made I try to forget
But I can't, it's so hopeless and yet I still try...
I can see his phantom eyes glaring at me
I can feel his phantom grip tightening around my neck
I can hear his phantom laughter right evilly
I gotta run, gotta run
I've gotta get out of here
[Short Instrumental]
I'm too afraid to look into the mirror
Cause when I do I find that I'm looking at HIM
I'm reminded of a fact that's getting clearer
That I'm going insane and I think I like it
Every insult said I try to push to the back of my mind
Every arguement I try to wipe it away
Every bad choice I made I try to forget
But I can't, it's so hopeless and yet I still try...
I can't see their cheerful faces smilin'
I can't feel their cheerful presence that gave me reasons to live
I can't hear their cheerful laughter tempting me to join in
I ran away, ran away
And left them all behind
[INSTRUMENTAL]
I pushed them all away
Only left with a growing madness
Forget about me
Everything about me
Everything I've done I wanna forget
Everything I've said I really regret
But to try to forget and to have much regret
Means nothing, if no one forgives you...
[Music stops]
Now I can feel his phantom eyes boring into the back of my head
Yet I can't feel my friends' cheerful faces, they no longer remain
And I can feel their cheerful presence slowly dissappearing
But I can't feel anything but his phantom grip on my neck
[Music starts up again]
And I realize I shouldn't have ran...
