Afraid Of The Dark

(álbum: Songs Of Love And Death - 2015)

Every day, I try to run, but in vain
Anytime I stop, it all starts again
In the shadows I cast, silhouettes of the past
Every day, I lie and say, that I'm cured
Even though I know they're just empty words
If there's nowhere to turn
Am I destined to burn?

Who is my salvation when no one's aware I'm at war?

(Under this skin)
I feel a stranger, her sadness and her rage!
(Under this skin)
I hear her screaming and rattling her cage!
(Fight it! Fight it!)
I'm afraid of the dark!
(Fight it! Fight it!)
I'm afraid of the dark!
(Fight it! Fight it!)
I'm afraid of the dark inside me!

Every year, I pray that I'll be released
On my knees, I beg and plead for some peace
And the answer's the same:
I'm consumed by her flames

Who is my salvation when no one's aware I'm at war?

(Under this skin)
I feel a stranger, her sadness and her rage!
(Under this skin)
I hear her screaming and rattling her cage!
(Fight it! Fight it!)
I'm afraid of the dark!
(Fight it! Fight it!)
I'm afraid of the dark!
(Fight it! Fight it!)
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark inside me!

Give me the light that I need to defeat the dark!
Give me the light that I need to escape!
Give me the light if we cursed instead of blessed
Help me, lay us both to rest
Help me, lay us both to rest

(Under this skin)
I feel a stranger, her sadness and her rage!
(Under this skin)
I hear her screaming and rattling her cage!
(Fight it! Fight it!)
I'm afraid of the dark!
(Fight it! Fight it!)
I'm afraid of the dark!
(Fight it! Fight it!)
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark inside me!
