Deeper Darker

Chorus

I hide the keys beneath my tongue

Silent words I never sung

Locked away from everyone

Can you tell what I’ve become

Post-Chorus

Deeper darker keep it quiet

Shadows dancing in my mind

Verse 2

I cut my hair in the mirror at night

Just to see if it feels right

Drawing eyes on the back of my hand

No one sees what I demand

I don’t sleep until four

Dreams crawling on the floor

Ash in my lungs

Truth’s never young

Pre-Chorus

Secrets tap against my window

Asking if I’ll let them in

But I shiver with the wind low

And bury what’s within

Chorus

I hide the keys beneath my tongue

Silent words I never sung

Locked away from everyone

Can you tell what I’ve become

Post-Chorus

Deeper darker keep it quiet

Shadows dancing in my mind

Bridge

Cracks in the paint of my bedroom walls

List the names I’ll never call

Footsteps echo down the hall

My secrets cradle every fall

Outro

Underneath my eyelids, secrets replay

Pressed between lines I never say

If you look closer you might find

The shadows where I confide
