The monster under the bed was the same one that tucked me in
The beast in the closet was supposed to a friend
The scratching shadow outside the window
Was the one I thought I knew
All these nightmares, all these tremors, they all are you

If we were in the mines, you’d be the blackdamp in my lungs
I’d be the canary who is never coming home

Maybе I’m underdressed, maybе I’ll blend in fine
If you’re under duress, I’ll help you free your mind
I find you wondrous, maybe I crossed the line
We’ll load this blunderbuss and start firing blind
It sounds adventurous, if we make it out alive

With no harness you came and threw me in the lake
No gentle caress before you claimed me your biggest mistake
If I sink in the ground, if I drown, you’d say it must be fate
All these nightmares, all these tremors, they share your name

If we were blasting off, you’d be the radiation
I’d be the mongrel mutt who is never coming home

Maybe I’m underdressed, maybe I’ll blend in fine
If you’re under duress, I’ll help you free your mind
I find you wondrous, maybe I crossed the line
We’ll load this blunderbuss and start firing blind
It sounds adventurous, if we make it out alive
Thrown under the bus, scapegoat for a time
We’ll load this blunderbuss and start firing blind
