Scared of the Dark

Don't you tell me you're fine

I can tell when you're lying

Caught you slipping on ice

But your heart is on fire

'Cause I notice your scars

And I know that it's hard

And I hope you don't start

Gettin' all fucking quiet

'Cause we made it so far

I don't wanna restart

Recollecting these sparks

Reconnecting these wires

'Cause I'm scared of the dark

Can we skip to the part

Where you fall in my arms

And you tell me you're tired?

You can tell me you're tired

Last night you looked quite alright

But you seem so formal all the time

'Cause you laugh and smile, but you never cry

So why?

Are you tired?

We go where we want to go

And we call whatever we want home

And we wonder why they never leave us on our own

Don't you tell me you're fine

I can tell when you're lying

Caught you slipping on ice

But your heart is on fire

'Cause I notice your scars

And I know that it's hard

And I hope you don't start

Gettin' all fucking quiet

'Cause we made it so far

I don't wanna restart

Recollecting these sparks

Reconnecting these wires

'Cause I'm scared of the dark

Can we skip to the part

Where you fall in my arms

And you tell me you're tired?

You can tell me you're tired

They say you're better off by yourself

But they never understood just how you felt

When the beat dies down and your soul just melts

And you don't have to hold back tears

'Cause after everything I'm here for you

There's nothing you should fear

Don't you tell me you're fine

I can tell when you're lying

Caught you slipping on ice

But your heart is on fire

'Cause I notice your scars

And I know that it's hard

And I hope you don't start

Gettin' all fucking quiet

'Cause we made it so far

I don't wanna restart

Recollecting these sparks

Reconnecting these wires

'Cause I'm scared of the dark

Can we skip to the part

Where you fall in my arms

And you tell me you're tired?

You can tell me you're tired
