Green lyrics

If all the things you said were right

How come you can't go hame at night

You're frightened on your own

Scared to be alone

In your head

Not at home

And all the things you say and do

Won't take the fear away from you

And so you're once again tonight

Just praying for the light

When thoughts that haunt you so

Will slowly let you go

And once again the dread

Is burning in your head

You try but can't let go

This pain that kills you so

If all the things you say were true

Why can't you start this game anew?

It's nothing that was said

It's only in your head

But the dread, oh god the dread

And all the things you say and do

Won't take the fear away from you

And so you're once again tonight

Just praying for the light

When thoughts that haunt you so

Will slowly let you go

And once again the dread

Is burning in your head

You try but can't let go

This pain that kills you so

And once again the tonight

Just praying for the light

When thoughts that haunt you so

Will slowly let you go

And once again that dread

Is burning up your head

You try but can't let go

This pain that kills you so
