the night’s as silent as the still seas
but the loudest noise screams inside of me
the city sleeps, faded lights and empty sidewalks
but i’m alone in my head and i can’t talk

i want to dance, to run wild and free
but my demons and monsters won’t let me be
and i am lost, but do i want to be found?
i think no one is going to come around

and i tell myself, hush hush
yet my heart screams in technicolor
but all these billboards and meaningless chatter
tell me “nobody listens, you don’t really matter"

and i am frozen beneath the surface
i am scared and i am nervous
but maybe i’ll get used to this, feeling all alone
writing letters to nobody with no one to phone
