nightmares

there's a little house

on a perfect little hill

just short of a fairytale

there's a little child with a million ways to feel

caught up in a hurricane

paper-thin walls

angry words from down the hall

something changed then

i think about him every now and again

now there's a ghost in the back of this room

and i don't like it

i fall asleep with my covers pulled up

and try to fight it

i gotta say

it's hard to be brave

when you're alone in the dark

i told myself that i wouldn't be scared

but i'm still having nightmares

i'm still having nightmares

never did i think i'd be coming back around

digging up old memories

always used to be the one to let it go

kept my fears in a suitcase

i locked them away

in a place i wouldn't find

they still haunt me

i think about it every now and again

now there's a ghost in the back of this room

and i don't like it

i fall asleep with my covers pulled up

and try to fight it

i gotta say

it's hard to be brave

when you're alone in the dark

i told myself that i wouldn't be scared

but i'm still having nightmares

i'm still having nightmares

now there's a ghost in the back of this room

and i don't like it

i fall asleep with my covers pulled up

and try to fight it

now there's a ghost in the back of this room

and i don't like it

i fall asleep with my covers pulled up

and try to fight it

i gotta say

it's hard to be brave

when you're alone in the dark

i told myself that i wouldn't be scared

but i'm still having nightmares

i'm still having nightmares

i gotta say

it's hard to be brave

when you're alone in the dark

i told myself that i wouldn't be scared

but i'm still having nightmares
