​night terrors

[Intro]
When it’s late out
I’m a fighter
In the nighttime
I’m a lone survivor
I think nothing like you
But with time
A moment of doubt can
Linger longer
Grow much stronger
And I can’t stop my
Ringing conscious
I’ve done my best to
Save what’s left of my bed
‘Cause by the end of tonight
I’ll be tired

[Verse 1]
(Three, two, one, go!)
I’ve tried settling in space and time
Counting every little place and sight
But my room really only makes me cry
And I panic when the light’s off
I’ve been splitting half the rent with you
Making memories with half your due
And to this day I wanna ask
Just how much was my fault?

[Refrain]
If you could walk
If you could talk

[Chorus]
When it’s late out
I’m a fighter
In the nighttime
I’m a lone survivor
I think nothing like you
But with time

[Verse 2]
Uh, thoughts turn into something more than this
Reaching deep into my mind’s abyss
And I’d be willing just to take one risk
If it meant that I could meet you
Fiction’s better on the other side
Monsters hiding in the dead of night
And maybe they’re all just as friendly too

[Bridge]
But only ever wanna bite
While I’m busy checking under my bed
They count until it’s time
To feast upon my head
Just rip it into little bits and pieces
I’m really trying to act a little decent
For my guests
I guess it’s not my place to rest

[Chorus]
When it’s late out
I’m a fighter
In the nighttime
I’m a lone survivor
I think nothing like you
But with time

[Breakdown]
It’s not your problem now but
I’ve been relentless
I’ve got shit ironed out and
The candle’s scentless
So if you’re in for something rejuvenating
I’ve got a bloody mirror with
Your name engraved in it so
Could I pretend you’re
Inside my house for now
And try to animate you

[Outro]
When it’s late out
I’m a fighter
In the nighttime
I’m a lone survivor
I think nothing like you
But with time
A moment of doubt can
