[Verse 1]
No, I can't stay long
While you’re sleeping next to me
I'm talking to the moon alone
No, I can't, I swear
While you try to keep me safe in a bell jar
I run out of air
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not afraid of the dark, I'm not afraid of the cold
I wanna breathe in winter till my lungs fill with snow

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm not afraid of the dark, I’m not afraid of the cold
I wanna breathe in winter till my lungs fill with snow
Oh, that's all I know
[Chorus]
I only survive in the wild
Alone out here for miles
I've lasted this long on my own, on my own
