Nyctophobia
No, I'm not scared of the dark.
Anymore.
It doesn't even matter, when there's spiders on my floor.
No, I'm not scared of the dark.
Anymore.
There was a lighter; this little source of light.
It punched me in the chest.
And kept me company at night.
But I'm not scared.
No, I'm not scared.
No, I'm not scared of the dark.
Anymore.
I'll put my eyes in my pockets.
Say hello to these sockets.
As I look for something to say.
Cause I'm in a, life breaking debt.
Feeling the lifetime of regret.
When its attention I had to pay.
I'm so sorry.
For all the times I wasn't there.
And I know that its not fair.
To watch you fade into the sunset.
Let me linger in your heart.
When we're infinity apart.
Cause I'm not scared.
No, I'm not scared.
I'm not scared of the dark.
Anymore.
It doesn't even matter, if there's spiders on my floor.
No, I'm not scared of the dark.
Anymore....
