Trapped inside a theater
Of faces I defend
I say they're only stories
But I am what I pretend
To be
You show me a lover
Who has wandered
Toward the flash
I'll show you a layer
In the sediment
Of ash
All I want to do
Is melt back into you
Still I fight
Fear of light
It's easier
To focus on a figment
In the sky
Than look
Into the secret
In someone else's eyes
And I know why
This fevered dream
This suffocating night
Keeps my heart asleep
In fear of light
All I want to do
Is melt back into you
Still i fight
Fear of light
