I'm gonna tell you how I felt
All these years of loneliness I learned with no life belt
I hid inside the closet and
Was playin' hide and seek, but was seeking only help
I was dying' outside-in, but was livin' inside-out
I'm gonna tell you what I know
I know what it is to be afraid of the dark and the unknown
To feel the fear until you shake but
That's what living is about, how do you know that you're alive
If the only place you're ever in is the comfort of your lies
I'm gonna tell you my bed time
My bed time story
Gonna tell you my bedtime
My bed time story
I know the secret of the night
That which makes the moonflower bloom, the illusion of delight
And the Truth behind our doom
I see better in the dark, I got vision, I got heart
But it broke down into pieces - I'm still looking for a spare part
I thought nobody knew me
But I knew nobody
I thought nobody loved me
But I loved nobody
I thought I was too different from the rest
I made sure to believe that I was less…
I'm gonna tell you my bed time
My bed time story
Gonna tell you my bedtime
My bed time story
One day I woke up, and tomorrow had come
I saw my dreams come true, seems like I sobered up (x2)
I saw that my bedtime, my bedtime stories
Are just that - they're stories that I told myself
And all the bedtime, the bedtime stories
Are just that - they're stories that we tell ourselves
Don't believe in no bedtime story
You should leave them all in closet
Just leave them hanging' there…
