Awake at night.
As a child I was mostly awake at night.
I was scared but I kept real quiet.
Shadows on the walls moving in on me...
And underneath my sheets I could barely breathe
All it would have taken was a single call.
But I didn’t scream out loud, because of your room across the hall
I didn’t wanted it to continue
I kept quiet because that shadow in my room was you
I kept my breath en closed my eyes
Dreamed away and went to paradise
Fantasized about a happy live,
Hopeful thoughts witch kept me alive.
As a child I was mostly awake at night.
I was scared but I kept real quiet.
I couldn’t get the sleep I needed..
Because your plans always succeeded
All it would have taken was a single call
But I didn’t scream out loud, because of your room across the hall
I didn’t want you to see the tears running down my face
Turned my head away, wished you kept your space.
I kept my breath en closed my eyes
Dreamed away and went to paradise.
Thoughts of stuffed animals that hold me tight
Because they made me happy I knew they’re always right.
