All music and lyrics by Before There Was Fire

lyrics

Running
But I can't hide
The monster lives deep inside
And he's creeping, and he's crawling
His way to meet you

The reaper, his demons
Nightcrawlers. the reasons
Have they yet devoured
The heart of a coward

But now I've opened up my eyes
To see what's left in this disguise
But I can't see at night
So leave the TV and the light on

The pressure, it seeps in
A faulty foundation
The roof caved in on me
As I lay sleeping

The floor gave way beneath my feet
I try to run as it swallows me
Trapped here, underneath
I try to scream but I can't speak

But now I've opened up my eyes
To see what's left in this disguise
But I can't see at night
So leave the TV and the light on

I'm trying, for real
So silent, I feel
