Wake up the dead screaming so silently
Punch out the walls of insecurity
Make up and stand and say that I ll be fine
I spread these kinds of rumors all the time
My barricade is like a prison fence
The way I m feeling when I smile: They really make no sense
Lights in my room just like a starry night
And that s the way that it goes,
that s just the way that it goes
When there s nobody around you,
no one to profound you
Just leave me alone,
don t leave me by myself
I see no friends, only strangers
that don t know my danger
I drink my coffee from a paper cup
It doesn t keep my hands warm enough
Making some plans so I have something to break
Looking alive so I have something to fake
There s no protection when the demons come
I hear the screaming pound on my eardrums
This house is haunted now that nobody knows
That s just way that it goes
that s just the way that it goes
When there s nobody around you,
no one to profound you
Just leave me alone,
don t leave me by myself
I see no friends, only strangers
that don t know my danger
Tell me that this is a dream
Give me the weightlessness I need
I m floating around this room now
Escaping the memory stampede
I think I can see my mother
Living without her s made me weak
I m fighting a losing battle
I am a game of hide and seek
When there s nobody around you,
no one to profound you
Just leave me alone,
don t leave me by myself
I see no friends, only strangers
that don t know my danger
When there s nobody around you,
no one to profound you
Just leave me alone,
don t leave me by myself
I see no friends, only strangers
that don t know my danger
(That s just the way that it goes, oh )
