"The Haunting" lyrics

"The Haunting"

Let's take it back and start again
It was the look in your eyes that told me how this ends
I never promised I'd be what you need

But like a moth to a flame you're fixated on me

I bet you're sick of this life
I'll show you how to feel alive
You hear my voice in your head
You know you shouldn't but you can't get enough of it

So now my heart's open
Left with words unspoken
I'm turning pages but the words just seem to disappear
Now I can't catch my breath
It's like ropes around my chest
You hear me screaming but the words just seem to fade away

Time is all it takes to change the tide
The fucking effort is a waste of breath and I can't find out
Why I've wasted so much time
It's like a knife in my back
How do you sleep at night

I saw this coming and it's haunting me
How do you sleep at night
I saw this coming and it's haunting me
Haunting me

So now my heart's open
Left with words unspoken
I'm turning pages but the words just seem to disappear
Now I can't catch my breath
It's like ropes around my chest
You hear me screaming but the words just seem to fade away

You'll fade away
You'll fade away

I wouldn't change it
Don't regret it
You are just
Scum

So now my heart's open
Left with words unspoken
And I can't catch my breath
It's like ropes around my chest

So now my heart's open
Left with words unspoken
I'm turning pages but the words just seem to disappear
Now I can't catch my breath
It's like ropes around my chest
You hear me screaming but the words just seem to fade away
