[Verse 1]
Walls lean in close
Like they know my name
Cold breath on my neck
And the floor won’t stay
I taste that rust
In the back of my mouth
Every locked door
Still lets something out
[Pre-Chorus]
I can hear it crawl
Under my skin
Sharp little eyes
In the dark again
Hold your breath
Don’t make a sound
It’s coming up
From the underground
[Chorus]
Twisted fear, twisted fear
It lives right here
Twisted fear, twisted fear
It pulls me near
Twisted fear, twisted fear
I hear it laugh
Twisted fear, twisted fear
And I laugh back (ha-ha-ha)
[Verse 2]
Black wires shake
In the ceiling cage
My heartbeat hits
Like a locked-up rage
Hands on the glass
But the glass looks back
Every step I take
Gets me dragged off track
I see your grin
In the corner smoke
A broken smile
With a throat of oak
[Pre-Chorus]
I can hear it crawl
Under my skin
Sharp little eyes
In the dark again
Hold your breath
Don’t make a sound
It’s coming up
From the underground
[Chorus]
Twisted fear, twisted fear
It lives right here
Twisted fear, twisted fear
It pulls me near
Twisted fear, twisted fear
I hear it laugh
Twisted fear, twisted fear
And I laugh back (ha-ha-ha)
[Bridge]
I was born in the pressure
Raised on the crack
You fed me the shadow
Now it won’t let go back
[ha-ha-ha]
Say my name
Watch it split
I break the lock
Then I live in it
[Final Chorus]
Twisted fear, twisted fear
It lives right here
Twisted fear, twisted fear
It pulls me near
Twisted fear, twisted fear
I hear it laugh
Twisted fear, twisted fear
And I laugh back (ha-ha-ha)
Twisted fear, twisted fear
No place to hide
Twisted fear, twisted fear
I wear it inside
