Lyrics

Shadows move beneath the door,
The creak of footsteps on the floor.
Whispers rise, a shattered plea,
The walls are thin, but they shelter me.

Silent prayers beneath my breath,
Counting heartbeats, fearing death.
The monsters wear familiar skin,
So I hide where it can't begin.

In the closet, where the darkness feels like home,
A sanctuary carved from fear, I'm never alone.
The echoes fade, but the memories cling tight,
The closet keeps me safe from the night.

His voice, a storm, the bottles break,
Her cries dissolve in what he takes.
The world outside, a cruel facade,
The closet shields my fragile heart.

Wooden doors, my armored shell,
A fortress from this private hell.
Though years have passed, I still retreat,
To the closet's cold, familiar seat.

In the closet, where the darkness feels like home,
A sanctuary carved from fear, I'm never alone.
The echoes fade, but the memories cling tight,
The closet keeps me safe from the night.

What does it mean to grow,
When safety’s in the shadows?
A child’s refuge becomes my chain,
But outside waits a storm of pain.

In the closet, where the darkness feels like home,
A sanctuary carved from fear, I'm never alone.
The echoes fade, but the memories cling tight,
The closet keeps me safe from the night.

The monsters gone, but still I stay,
A broken girl locked in yesterday.
The world’s too bright, the truth too loud,
So I hide where the dark allows.
