In an interview with Team Rock, Greg Puciato described the song, whose lyrics “reference panic attacks and panic disorder”, as “the most literal and non-metaphoric or abstract thing I’ve ever written”.
Puciato: “The whole record is pretty dark and this is definitely one of the darker songs on there...
[Verse 1]
To those of you I loved
This pains me to lose
I hate to feel used
[Chorus]
I'm frightened in sleep, thinking my world will be gone
Promise me I won't die
I panic in dreams from when I was still young
Please don't turn on that light, I can't see it
[Verse 2]
To those of you I've lost

Please know that I tried
Please know that I tried
[Chorus]
I'm frightened in sleep, thinking my world will be gone
Promise me I won't die
I panic in dreams from when I was still young
Please don't turn on that light, I can't see it
(Please don't turn on that light)
[Bridge]
Do you really think
That I would leave you
But I couldn't stand myself
So I had to choose
Still you turn me on

But now I can't trust myself
To keep on the light
For us to see with
[Chorus]
I'm frightened in sleep, thinking our world will be gone
Promise me I won't die
I panic in dreams from when I was still young
Please don't turn on that light
I'm frightened in sleep, thinking our world will be gone
Promise me I won't die
I panic in dreams from when I was still young
Please don't turn on that...
