Tarby's Basement

She spent the night sitting alone 
Trapped in the shadows of her room 
Silently tried to disobey 
while something told her to resume 
Inside her fears had ever grown 
All things that she would once assume 
And as the night turned into day 
These feelings started to consume

Inside regret had tried to show 
But something kept it from her eyes 
And whispered softly in her ear 
Trying and trying to advise 
She knew her talents, knew her skills 
All the rest she’d improvise 
She’d help her conquer all her fears 
While fixing all that she despised

When Will I be done? 
What am I to do? 
Where else could I go? 
I haven’t got a clue 
Should I run so far? 
should I try and stay? 
Tell me what to do 
to make the cravings go away…

And so she listened to the voice 
It seemed the best thing at the time 
It walked her through what she should say 
Every gesture, every line 
And told her who to target next 
With such a smile behind her eyes 
It killed her, but couldn’t deny 
She felt so happy and alive

When Will I be done? 
What am I to do? 
Where else could I go? 
I haven’t got a clue 
Should I run so far? 
should I try and stay? 
Tell me what to do 
to make the cravings go away…

Every day it’s all the same 
(but things will change, yes things will change) 
I’ve had enough, so I will stay 
(but things will change, yes things will change) 
They think I’m crazy as the night 
(but things will change, yes things will change) 
And when it’s time, i’ll prove them right 
(but things will change, yes things will change….)

She spent the night sitting alone 
Trapped in the shadows of her room 
Silently tried to disobey 
while something told her to resume 
Inside her fears had ever grown 
All things that she would once assume

These feelings started to consume
