Lyrics
“Hey, now, please come down.
There’s nothing for you here.
I know how I sound,
Begging to your fears.”
Paint in your hallway peels
Flakes of yellow on the ground
Memories of a better time
Scatter around
Everything feels too fake
To care about what’s real
Can’t resolve past mistakes
When you’re too numb to feel
“Hey, dear, please come here.
Please let those voices drown.
Your voice is so clear,
Crying at the sound.”
Wood in the stairway chips
Splinters all over the ground
Memories are shattered and killed
Making no sound
Oh, I hate it here!
Stuck between Hell and the bends
Oh, I can’t live like this, my dear
I’m at wit’s end
With the walls, I sing
Desperately for repose
But the rest never comes
And I’m getting so cold
When you speak to me
I can recall all your warmth
But you’re running away
While I’m stuck in the-
If I disappear
It would be much better here.
If I end it here
You would be off better, dear.
Cracks in my memories show
Pictures broken on the wall
And deep down I know
I’m the culprit after all
If my knuckles bleed
Know it wasn’t all my fault
It was ‘cause of the thing
That’s been haunting my
Halls and my memories
Everything’s lost after all
And above everything
I love nothing at all
Not my life, nor my memories
Darkened and all
And with one last goodbye
I’ll take one step and fall
“My dear, please be near.
There’s something you should hear
Oh, dear, as I feared:
You’re forever resting here.”
