i'm afraid of the dark. i'm afraid of losing control. i lock my door at night, knowing nobody will come in. my fear overpowers my common sense - welcome to society. so i turn on the lights, turn on the radio. and i lay there, for hours, waiting for my mind to turn off. but it never does. the thoughts turn into dreams, and dreams turn into memories. i dream of running away to someplace beautiful, desirable. but i'm just a kid who's afraid of the dark who locks her door and turns up the world around her in fear of being alone.
