Not Again

The cracks they spread and burn
Turn over and pull the sheets over my head
The lights are out and I'm not breathing
It doesn't matter, its already seen me
Close my eyes and count to three
Repeat it isn't real it's just a dream
It isn't real, it's in my head
Say it like a prayer because I'm already dead

And I'm screaming, "Not again!"
Because I know I can't take it
Not again
Because I know I won't make it
Not again
I can't fucking do this
Not again... Not again...

The fire spreads and my ribs bloom open
The heart inside is black and rotten
My skin is cinders, my lungs are lead
It's all in your head, it's all in your head

Not again
I know I can't take it
Not again
I know I won't make it
Not again
I can't fucking do this
I won't fucking do this
This is the end

Just when I think you've finished raping my mind
The door opens and under the sheets I hide

And whisper, "Not again..."
