I want to disappear tonight
Slink into the shadows twilight
Let death hold me as I weep
And lay my body down to sleep
I don't want to be alone tonight
The darkness lures me into fright
All noise I hear is my beating heart
As I give all that I am to dark
I want someone to hug tonight
To cradle me hold me love me right
Show me that I'm never alone
To love me as much, as I love them
But dreams, they don't come true tonight
With my watering eyes and blurry sight
I'll read for a while, a minute, a spell
And let my mind forget the hell
Tonight, I wish was my final night
Let my mind go blank, my eyes go white
Screaming, crying, what beautiful storm
Running, my blood that once was warm
The monsters aren't in my head tonight
My heart is not consumed by frost bite
I'm not the devil, don't fear me, please
I've got a human heart that breaks and bleeds
I don't want to hurt people,
I just don't want to cry
But if it makes you happy
Let me fade and die
I'll be empty for you
A sweet human shell
I won't gossip or talk
I won't dare kiss and tell
I'll shut up so pretty
Just to be what you desire
And let all I am turn to ash
Become one with the fire
