some nights my past creeps up inside me
getting rotten in my head

infecting all my thoughts
telling me lots and lots
of nasty things.

I don't recall a single peaceful moment
I'm skipping straight to pain

tossing and turning
'cause thoughts are burning
thoughts are burning
through my bed

and I'm scared I can't escape my past
and I'm scared I might want to go back
I'm scared relief is temporary
I'm ******* scared

relief won't last.

some nights my past creeps up inside me
getting rotten in my head
these thoughts are burning
thoughts are burning
through my bed.
