There's something frightening in you,
and I've always been attracted to the things that scare me most.
I guess you could call it a counterphobic attitude.
Just as all these words are meant for ghosts.
But I'm sick of the sound of crunched eggshells,
and the elephant in the room leaves me crowded.
So hand me that broom;
this dust is being swept under the carpet.

But I'm sick of the sound of crunched eggshells,
and the elephant in the room leaves me crowded.
So hand me that broom;
this dust is being swept under the carpet.
The thing under your bed is just in your head.
