I was raised in a valley
There were shadows and death
Got out alive
But with scars I can't forget
This kid back in school
Subdued and shy
Went by, day by day
Unseen by most eyes
I don't know what it was
That made a piece of her die
Took a girl to the forest,
Slaughtered her with a scythe
Stamped on her face,
An impression in the dirt
Do you think the silence
Makes a good man convert?
We all have our horrors
And our demons to fight,
But how can I win
When I'm paralysed?
They crawl up on my bed
Wrap their fingers round my throat
Is this what I get
For the choices that I've made?
God forgive me for all of my sins,
God forgive me for everything
Don't go, I can't do this on my own
Save me from the ones
That haunt me in the night
I can't live with myself
So stay with me tonight
Don't go.
If I let you in,
You'd just want out
If I tell you the truth,
You'd vie for a lie
If I spilt my guts,
It would make a mess we can't clean up
If you follow me,
we'd only get lost
If you try to get closer,
We'd only lose touch
Yes you already know too much
And you're not going anywhere
Tell me that you love me, 'cause I need you so much.
Tell me that you need me, 'cause I love you so much.
Say you'll never leave me, 'cause I need you so much.
