The house is empty
Nobody’s looking for me
Overwhelmed and frozen, I’ve been here before
Yeah
The vision dances
Dead branches scratch the windows
Shadows cast upon the floor are distorted
By my fantasies,
These fairy tales tell more than a memory
Every night, when the wolves are prowling without me
I’m staying home, by my phone, no thoughts about you
My fantasies are roaming out there
Dim the lights, let me hide, before they come true.
As the world parties
Am I lost or forgotten?
My cries are no more than ringing in your ears.
Damn.
The voices calling
No thanks, I think I’ll stay here.
Look in the mirror and think I finally see me.
In my fantasies,
These fairy tales tell more than a memory
Every night, when the wolves are prowling without me
I’m staying home, by my phone, no thoughts about you
My fantasies are roaming out there
Dim the lights, let me hide, before they come true.
Beneath this mask, I am beautiful, not mechanical.
Within this pulse, there’s nothing I can’t do.
Never needed you.
‘Cuz they’re my fantasies,
These fairy tales tell more than a memory
Every night, when the wolves are prowling without me
I’m staying home, by my phone, no thoughts about you
My fantasies are roaming out there
Dim the lights, let me hide, before they come true
