The Dark

Sixth Song off of Talking To My Demons ---- Lyrics: Please don't leave me in the dark. The sink is full again I let it go too long My phone face down, silent Like I did something wrong The hallway holds my name Then forgets it fast There’s a hole in every room Where you used to pass I keep the lamp on, but it doesn’t help This fear has hands and it knows me well I hear the floorboards in the dark above I start to shake, fearing for a lonely hell Don’t leave me here Don’t leave me here I’m scared in the dark I’m scared in the dark Hold this door Hold this door I’m alone with the ache I’m alone with the ache Your coat on the chair Still bent like a body I talk to the air Like somebody caught me The fridge hums low But it sounds like a crowd I count all my breaths Just to keep from falling out The rain hits the glass Like somebody knocking I freeze in place And I hate that I’m watching I keep the lamp on, but it doesn’t help This fear has hands and it knows me well I hear the floorboards in the dark above I start to shake, fearing for a lonely hell I hear the floorboards In the dark above I start to shake Before it shows up Don’t leave me here Don’t leave me here I’m scared in the dark I’m scared in the dark Hold this door Hold this door I’m alone with the ache I’m alone with the ache If you come back now Don’t say you’re sorry Just sit on the floor And stay here with me I don’t need a promise I don’t need a reason I need one warm hand In this cold season Don’t leave me here Don’t leave me here I’m scared in the dark I’m scared in the dark Hold this door Hold this door I’m alone with the ache I’m alone with the ache Don’t leave me here Don’t leave me here I’m scared in the dark I’m scared in the dark
