Cross my heart
And hope to die
I've done it all
A thousand times
I live in the city of angels
But nobody tells you it's dangerous, ohh
24 hours wasted
Maybe my light is fading

When I'm closing my eyes
I get close to the nightmare, nightmare
So I never go to sleep
I keep chasing the high
Try to run but they're right there, right there
It's making me crazy
I used to be scared of the monsters up
under my bed, no-oh
But now it's the demons
that livin' inside of my head, no-oh (Oh yeah)

I'm afraid of the dark

I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
Of the dark
Of the dark inside of me

I came here with an innocence
One night led to years of this
I used to dream of the angels
A place full of grace
Now it's painful
I'm tired of slaying dragons
That maybe I just imagined

When I'm closing my eyes
I get close to the nightmare, nightmare
So I never go to sleep
I keep chasing the high
Try to run but they're right there, right there
It's making me crazy
I used to be scared of the monsters up
under my bed, no-oh
But now it's the demons
that livin' inside of my head, no-oh (Oh yeah)

I'm afraid of the dark

I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
Of the dark
Of the dark inside of me

Inside of me
I'm afraid of the dark
I'm afraid of the dark
