Tela Bella - Heavy Shadows Lyrics

Woke up around five from a nightmare
I just saw a man standing right there
Can't blink and my muscles tighten
No use in fighting
I go through my day
I still remember his face
I pray that I'm safe for tonight
Crawl back into my bed
He creeps back into my head
Jagged, wretched silhouette
Paralyzing me again
If this is a dream, it feels no different to me
Awake or asleep
He lets me know there's no escaping

Darkness, daylight
Don't matter anytime
Casting heavy shadows
Waiting for the gallows
Quiet punishment
Silent suffering
If nobody sees it, then does it mean a damn thing

Woke up in a room without a light switch
I search for a door and I find it
I wonder what could be behind it
I find the guts to twist the doorknob and pull
But now I feel like a fool
I'm face to face with that man in my room
Shivers run down my spine
I'm begging for a lifeline
Petrifying silhouette
Paralyzing me again
He's laughing at me
I can't even scream
Awake or asleep
He lets me know there's no escaping

Darkness, daylight
Don't matter anytime
Casting heavy shadows
Waiting for the gallows
Quiet punishment
Silent suffering
If nobody sees it, then does it mean a damn thing

Darkness, daylight
Don't matter anytime
Casting heavy shadows
Waiting for the gallows
Quiet punishment
Silent suffering
If nobody sees it, then does it mean a damn thing
