[Verse]
The sun won't rise or maybe I can't see
Dark clouds hang where my eyes should be
This house is a tomb it’s swallowing me whole
Echoes of silence they gnaw at my soul
[Chorus]
Lonely days are better left for the dead
Bad thoughts creep and crawl in my head
When I wake I don't want to leave my bed
Lonely days better left for the dead
[Verse 2]
I hear the clock tick but it’s mocking me slow
Each second a hammer each moment a blow
The world keeps spinning but I’m stuck in the gray
The weight of nothing crushing my day
[Prechorus]
Close my eyes see the same old fight
Close my eyes but it’s still not right
[Chorus]
Lonely days are better left for the dead
Bad thoughts creep and crawl in my head
When I wake I don't want to leave my bed
Lonely days better left for the dead
[Bridge]
Is there a way out or is this the plan
Treading the quicksand I can’t understand
Shadows on the wall they whisper my name
Is it me or the dark that's playing this game
