keep me afraid

I'm in the corner of your cage
Mascara running down my face
The door is open, but I'll stay
You think you can keep me and keep me afraid
You're twisting screws inside my head
I won't just lie down and play dead
Take a good look at my face, you think you can keep me?

Scared to fall asleep at night when you're by my side
I don't know why, it doesn't feel right
Hide behind your poker face, you do it every day
I know you lie, so I fake a smile, ah
Cause in the end The end I know you'll get You'll get
Everything you gave

I'm in the corner of your cage
Mascara running down my face
The door is open, but I'll stay
You think you can keep me and keep me afraid
You're twisting screws inside my head
I won't just lie down and play dead
Take a good look at my face, you think you can keep me?
