[Verse 1]
A single red balloon passes me by
Seems as if I'm not alone in my mind
Feel the weight eyes watching me
Keep my distance from what lies underneath
The city streets don't seem so safe
I hear it laughing under skies of grey
I walk alone but feel something by my side

[Chorus]
I look away
Cover my eyes
Peer through my fingers
IT smiles as I cry

[Verse 2]
Hoping this all just a bad dream
Why does it feel my skin is slowly burning
A gentle whisper calls my name
I think I'm going insane
The city streets don't seems so safe
I hear it laughing under skies of grey
I walk alone but feel something by my side

[Chorus]
I look away
Cover my eyes
Peer through my fingers
IT smiles as I cry
I look away
Cover my eyes
Peer through my fingers
IT smiles as I cry
[Verse 3]
A figure, a shadow, it creeps behind me
Worst nightmare is haunting my reality
Don't know if it's real but it's something I see
Teeth lookin' so sharp, I just cannot believe
So

[Chorus]
I look away
Cover my eyes
Peer through my fingers
IT smiles as I cry
I look away
Cover my eyes
Peer through my fingers
IT smiles as I cry
