Lyrics
My house is on fire
Gotta climb higher
Or I'll be slowly burning away
So I jump to the ocean,
but drown in slow motion
‘til a shark picks me up as his prey
Would it be over?
When my eyes are open,
Cause I can’t do this night and day,
But I will be right there,
Fighting my nightmare,
So I'll be back to being okay.
There’s an attack
From under my bed
or is it all inside my head?
I try to run, but every turn I take goes back
I try to breathe, but suffocate,
As in a tube that hits the brakes
I gotta brace myself until it’s day.
My house is on fire
Gotta climb higher
Or I'll be slowly burning away
So I jump to the ocean,
but drown in slow motion
‘til a shark picks me up as his prey
Would it be over?
When my eyes are open,
Cause I can’t do this night and day,
But I will be right there,
Fighting my nightmare,
So I'll be back to being okay.
They disappear, when I face my fears,
But when I try to see ‘em clear,
The demons pull another trick,
Treating me until I’m sick,
So I,
try to change the game,
But they make, me lose,
My sense, of cool,
But what are you gonna do?
My house is on fire
Gotta climb higher
Or I'll be slowly burning away
So I jump to the ocean,
but drown in slow motion
‘til a shark picks me up as his prey
Would it be over?
When my eyes are open,
Cause I can’t do this night and day,
But I will be right there,
Fighting my nightmare,
So I'll be back to being okay.
So if you catch me in the nighttime
You can wake me up from my dreams
And if you catch me in the right time
You can silently hear me scream
My house is on fire
Gotta climb higher
Or I'll be slowly burning away
So I jump to the ocean,
but drown in slow motion
‘til a shark picks me up as his prey
Would it be over?
When my eyes are open,
Cause I can’t do this night and day,
But I will be right there,
Fighting my nightmare,
So I'll be back to being okay.
