In The Night

Oh, I hear footsteps
In the middle of the night
But I can't find my knife
Oh, I know I'm selfish
But I'd rather they be dead
Then the guilt of my husbands head
And it's dark
And it's quiet
If you think this is dark
You should see what's inside of my head
Oh it's dark
And it's quiet
If you think this is dark
You should see what's inside of my head
I'm half awake and it's truly torture
At the sound of a pin
I swear to the Lord that I'm going to war
I locked the doors but it feels so useless
Never fired a gun
But when the time comes
I hope I don't miss him
Him
Him
Oh, my ears are listening
Every creak is another threat
Another Russian Roulette
Oh, I'm hardly breathing
Torn between wrong and right
Stuck between a fight and a flight
Oh it's dark
And it's quiet
If you think this is dark
You should see what's inside of my head
Oh it's dark (oh it's dark)
And it's quiet (basically silent)
If you think this is dark
You should see what's inside of my head
I'm half awake and it's truly torture
At the sound of a pin
I swear to the Lord that I'm going to war
I locked the doors but I'm feeling ruthless
Never fired a gun
But I'm counting the moments
I hope that he comes in
In
(But I'm counting the moments
I hope that he comes in)
In
(But I'm counting the moments
I hope that he comes in)
In
(But I'm counting the moments
I hope that he comes in)
In
Here comes the pain
It started in my shoulder blades
It's in my back
It's been following me every day
Here comes the pain
It started in my shoulder blades
It's in my back
It's been following me every day
Here comes the pain
It started in my shoulder blades
It's in my back
It's been following me every day
Here comes the pain
It started in my shoulder blades
It’s in my back-
But when the time comes
I hope I don't miss him
Him
(But when the time comes
I hope I don't miss him)
Him
(But when the time comes
I hope I don't miss him)
Here comes the pain
It started in my should blades
It's in my back
It's been following me every day
Here comes the pain
It started in my shoulder blades
It's in my back
It's been following me every day
