My mind is a wreck and my hands are shaking

There’s a Reaper knocking at my door

I don’t know if he’s here to take my soul

Or if he’s just a ghost I made myself

The silence in the house is deafening

But the noise inside my head is getting worse

I’ll let the Reaper inside tonight

If he kills the noise and ends the fight

I’ll hand him the shovel to bury my thoughts

Before I’m tied in these mental knots

I don’t care if I ever breathe again

Just wash me clean of every single sin

I try to speak but my throat feels paralyzed

I’m suffocating on the empty air

I’m fighting battles that are not quite there

With a weight that I can barely bear

The silence in the house is deafening

But the noise inside my head is getting worse

I’ll let the Reaper inside tonight

If he kills the noise and ends the fight

I’ll hand him the shovel to bury my thoughts

Before I’m tied in these mental knots

I don’t care if I ever breathe again

Just wash me clean of every single sin

I know the ending all too well

Bound by secrets I can’t tell

I slipped the edge and then I fell

Dragging me down to a personal hell

I’ll let the Reaper inside tonight

If he kills the noise and ends the fight

I’ll hand him the shovel to bury my thoughts

Before I’m tied in these mental knots

I don’t care if I ever breathe again

Just wash me clean of every single sin
