Scratching

You're surrounding me
Trying to keep me in the dark
But silence is not easy
While you're tearing things apart

You try to remain
In the controversy
While distracting from the nightmare already begun

It's all starting to make sense

I'm beginning to understand
Why I'm not part of your master plan
I'm starting to notice who you are
A rat scratching at the wall around my heart

The closer you get to me
The more I see you devolve
A creature with gnawing teeth
And destruction in your wake

You try to remain
In the controversy
While distracting from the nightmare already begun

(I see you)

I'm beginning to understand
Why I'm not part of your master plan
I'm starting to notice who you are
A rat scratching at the wall around my heart

Scratch, scratch, scratch
Scratch, scratch, scratch
You want to eliminate me
And make me bleed
But I won't back down
I won't concede

Dig into me
And watch me contemplate how I'll make you grieve
You make me seethe
You make me volatile
Then gaze in horror at the rage you've never seen

I'm beginning to understand
Why I'm not part of your master plan
I'm starting to notice who you are
A rat scratching at the wall around my heart

I'm beginning to understand
Why I'm not part of your master plan
I'm starting to notice who you are
A rat scratching at the wall around my heart
