Haliday - Dark Things

I am starved
Locked away behind closed eyes
Hands tied up and locked tight, of no use
I'm all heart
Dark and dirty with lips closed
And when anyone gets too close, can't push through
And I am hungry for all the things I never felt before
And when I'm done, please don't give me more

I just want the dark things I swallow to stay down
I just want the dark things I swallow to stay down

You are scarred
Tangled up in the brambles
Bones are nothing but shambles, I was the glue
A mouth full
Of all the things I could not say
And if you ever got your way, I'd choke too
And I am hungry for all the things I never felt before
And when I'm done, please don't give me more

I just want the dark things I swallow to stay down
I just want the dark things I swallow to stay down, stay down

And I am down on my knees
Beg and plead to see the light
And when I rise to my feet
Pull the scales off my own eyes
Walking through the woods
Walking through the woods like a babe

I'm not lost
The wolves around me are tied tight
And if I live through this dark night, I'm coming for you
