//So I'm rewriting this a little bit to be kinda different so ya, now you have 2 versions\\
I now sit in that dark room
alone in that dark room
as I sit beneath the ground
in that moment
I just want to open the door and scream
"come in, in here, I'm not afraid anymore"
but I don't
I don't because
I am
and despite what I want to believe
this thing is gonna hurt me
and I don't know if it's just trying to lure me in
lure me in to
BOOM
an explosion sounds
BOOM
another
BOOM
B
O
O
M
that sound
that sound is a sound
that from this day forward
I won't be able to forget
and now
as the earth smokes and sizzles
the sky lit with that deep red glow
I sit in silence
I sit in silence
thinking about how if I had just
opened that door
it would have caught me
taken me with it and tortured me to all end
but
because I kept those doors shut
I live another day
the only sound outside now
is that small ring of emptiness
that broke through the silence
but I'm still here
and I'm still afraid
