When I was a kid I cried because I was afraid of the dark.
I sobbed as I searched for the light, 
Every time around midnight,
Stay up trying to fight my fright
As you can see fear destroys the seen. 
Ask me what I really mean. 
Fear controls love, 
Kind of like shooting a beautiful dove from above. 
Wonder why birds fly when you get close? 
Cause they fear that you'll do harm, like when you're are scared of pills after you tried to overdose. 
It's not being afraid of heights, it's being afraid of falling. 
It's not being afraid of the dark but getting lost in it. 
Fear controls you, 
Fear shuts you down and there's practically nothing you can do. 
Don't be afraid of confronting fear 
Once you let it in, it'll have no way out 
And that's without a doubt. 
DONT BE IT'S MAID 
JUST DONT BE AFRAID!

I take a little to much of each, 
Heart beat raises, doesn't work anymore. 
I can't believe I can't find the open door, 
Tears of regrets drop, as I take pill number four. 
Dropping the blade in the sink, 
I don't want to take another blink. 
Let me see the white light 
But how's that possible when I have no more sight. 
Goosebumps as the blade slowly cuts deep 
Trying to make my endings meet. 
As before the dark thoughts
Defeat 
Shattered eyes, withered heart. 
Bloomed rose as the wind tore it apart. 
Even the blind saw the pain, 
More hurtful when it cuts down the vain.

Now in the dark 
you're a star without a spark 
You treated me like a prince, and that left a mark. 
You don't remember me anymore 
I don't know who you are, but you're still the one I'm looking for. 
I still dream one day you'll appear in my front door, 
But I'm sure, the eye contact it's gonna make my inner voices roar. 
You once meant something to me, I won't deny that. 
Now I'm doing perfectly fine without you and that could be a proven fact.
 Please don't try coming in my life, trying to get me off track.
