Life isn't easy from the singular side Down in the hole, some emotions are hard to hide It's your decision, it's a chance that you take It's on your head, it's a habit that's hard to break. Do you need a friend Would you tell no lies Would you take me in Are you lonely in the dark In the dark In the dark In the dark. You never listen to the voices inside They fill your ears as you run to a place to hide You're never sure if the illusion is real You pinch yourself but the memories are all yo.
