Night Terrors Lyrics by Currents

The Place I Feel Safest

2017

[Verse 1]
Burn it down and forget
What I would try to hide so incessantly, but I just can't find release
For all the pain in my heart and the ache, it causes me while I bleed
Out for the people who've forgotten me, it's time to say what rests on my mind
Ever since I fell to pieces, I've never felt so alive

[Chorus]
Now I find you there staring at the edge of the sun
You try to get to safety, but you're losing light

[Verse 2]
This is a force I know I can't fight
'Cause even getting knocked out couldn't make me sleep tonight
I hope you scream when you hear my name
There's no place on this earth that you can escape
I hope you're lost and you never find peace
This is the weight of the world, and I won't
I'll never let this crash on me
Eternal suffering awaits
You're just another soul to steal
Just because I cannot breathe
Doesn't mean I can't feel

[Chorus]
Now I find you there staring at the edge of the sun
You try to get to safety, but you're losing light

[Breakdown]
So you try not to make a sound, no one's saving you now
We'll burn it to the ground
We'll fucking burn it down
Don't leave a trace of evil left in this house
Burn it down, burn it down, fucking burn it down
Don't leave a trace of evil left in this house, burn
It's the only way, burn it down and hope for peace
If I ignite it, maybe death will finally save me
The pain of being all alone, of lessons never learned
Of the constant burning, pain of always chasing things I don't deserve
Don't go looking when you know what's there
I promise there's no way to prepare

[Bridge]
But still I wait to fix this other part of me
And there's no way that I can breathe without release
Please, let me sleep
(I was never ashamed)
I'm still haunted in my dreams
(You always tried to keep me locked away)
And everything I've ever come to love has left me
(I was never ashamed)
'Cause not a thing in this world is what it seems
I wanna know why you don't want me

[Verse 3]
I beg you to find me
I’m haunted by the screaming in the night
A fear that drives me to resent my name
I put these walls to shame
I toss and turn, but there's no peace of mind
There's no diffusing this eternal hate
We'll burn it down in flames

[Outro]
Ignite, we'll fucking burn it down
Don't leave a trace of evil left in this house
Burn it down, burn it down, fucking burn it down
Don't leave a trace of evil left in this house
