Lyrics

[Intro]

Shadows in the stairwell

Teeth in every doorframe

Clock hands spin in circles

But the night will not move on

[Verse 1]

Wake up in the coffin of my blankets

Nails in my heartbeat

Scratching out a chant

Wallpaper bleeding all the faces

I prayed I’d never see again

Ceiling starts to crawl in crooked laughter

Floorboards hum a hymn I used to sing

Every photograph is turning backward

Every mirror steals another piece of skin

[Chorus]

I’m trapped inside the living nightmare

Eyes wide open

Still I drown

These walls remember every failure

Every promise pulling down

If this is just a dream

Then why

Do the scars stay when I rise?

I’m trapped inside the living nightmare

And it follows when I open my eyes

[Verse 2]

Hallway runs forever

Folding sideways

Doors slam shut before I touch the brass

Mother’s voice is dripping from the keyhole

Calling like a siren through the glass

Hands around my throat

They leave no fingers

Just a freezing halo in the air

Hear my future chewing on my footsteps

Tearing up the path that isn’t there (yeah)

[Chorus]

I’m trapped inside the living nightmare

Eyes wide open

Still I drown

These walls remember every failure

Every promise pulling down

If this is just a dream

Then why

Do the scars stay when I rise?

I’m trapped inside the living nightmare

And it follows when I open my eyes

[Bridge]

Run

But the floor runs with me

Scream

But the sound crawls back

Name every fear ’til my tongue turns black

(Still it circles, circles back)

Pray for the dawn but the sun looks away

And the moon just laughs in my face (hey!)

[Chorus]

I’m trapped inside the living nightmare

Eyes wide open

Still I drown

These walls remember every failure

Every promise pulling down

If this is just a dream

Then why

Do the scars stay when I rise?

I’m trapped inside the living nightmare

And it follows when I open my eyes

[Outro]

Heartbeat like a war drum

Fading slower

Footsteps in the hallway fall in line

If I fall asleep again

It’s over

’Cause the nightmare’s learning how to stay alive
