You look around but the windows are bare

You hear a sound but there's no one there

The other side of the bed is growing cold

Memories of his arms around you grow old

Now you wish that you begged him to stay

Alone in the dark, you're not safe until day

On your knees and pray

Invisible eyes everywhere stare

Anxiously you rip our your hair

Speak if you dare

There's a hand reaching out from under the bed

Never mind it's a slipper instead

It's all in your head

You hear a bang as somebody knocks

You slip and slide and turn all the locks

Fight or flight

Stay alive until light

Tap, tap, tap on the window pane

Breathing is the only thing keeping you sane

Whispers grow and mix in the dark

Back against the wall, you're prey for the shark

No one is safe in this make-believe hell

But no one will listen to the stories you tell

Fight

It's for your life, pick up your chin

Flight

Run away while you can, it's no sin
