lyrics

There's someone in my head that I can't describe
No one knows about it, it makes me wanna cry
In the mirror there's a costume over me
I'm afraid to die but nothing's better than sleep

Paint the windows black
All the shadows fall
I'm embarrassed of what my life's become

The scarecrow stands in front of me
A living puppet with all its strings
It lives to eat all of me
This reoccurs when I dream

Every now and then I need a rainy day
Makes me appreciate the light we all crave

Paint the windows black
All the shadows fall
I'm embarrassed of what my life's become

The scarecrow stands in front of me
A living puppet with all its strings
It lives to eat all of me
This reoccurs when I dream

Put me on reset I think I'm out of my mind
Put me on reset I think I'm losing my mind

The scarecrow stands in front of me
A living puppet with all its strings
It lives to eat all of me
This reoccurs when I dream

When I dream
