lifeline, by voxbox vacancy Subscribe to rss feed for voxbox vacancy

i'm still afraid of the dark sometimes
i still need a hand to hold
i want to crawl into bed next to you
i just hate to be alone
especially tonight
you're telling me that i'm strong
i'll pull through, like i've done before
somehow, it's a little more complicated
i don't want to hold on forever
i'm still scared of the
monsters under my bed
and i've always had a few
skeletons in my closets
but i don't feel like hiding anymore
i don't feel like fighting anymore
i 'm still afraid of what
awaits me in my sleep
these nightmares last a lifetime
while i dream away my lifeline
i'm too cold tonight
too lost here by myself
i'm drowning 
i'm too weak to be strong anymore
there's too much pain in me
and too much ignorance in you
this sickness is eating 
away at my insides
it's knawing away at my brain
sanity is sleeping away
i might lose it all this time
put me on stand-by
find me another lifeline
or i might just die
