Shut

from Choices by .STEPASIDE.

lyrics

in the shade of nights spent inside my mind
there’s an open fight, yet undercover
and what seems to heal me from my own fear of the life I live
depends on all the moments when they don’t understand
‘cause it’s something they’re not aware of
like a loaded gun I aim while I run away from the past which is my blank cartridge
here we stand in awe of what we’ve become
do we even recognize ourselves?
it ain’t look like that
just don’t call it a lie
we ought not to say goodbye
shutting myself away from the beloved ones
why do I do it at all?
there’s a stain hard to clean deep inside the body that you face but I’ll try
voices at the candle of a true light keeping the farewell gate shut
get it straight and don’t lose faith
I may be a stranger now but trust me I don’t ever want to go
‘cause there’s you
I need you
