02 Panic Room Lyrics - Riverside

Used to be my Panic Room 

The other side of me 

Where I slept and woke by turns 

And nothing seemed real 

I was feeding on your life 

Peering through the hole 

And it scared me out 

Someday 

You would knock on my door 

Sweet shelter of mine 

Im freezing without 

Sweet shelter of mine 

Im dying without 

Cover up my twisted thoughts 

Shattered all around 

Muffled sounds 

Recurring dreams 

Melatonin smile 

Used to be my 302 

The other side of light 

Trap of my own 

That helped me deal 

With what I lost inside 

Sweet shelter of mine 

Im freezing without 

Sweet shelter of mine 

Im dying without 

Sweet shelter of mine 

*** 

Ive tried to make self-portraits before 

But they always turn out so contrived 

Ive spent too much time 

Correcting light and shade 

Hiding wrinkles 

Blurring scars 

Ive tried to make self-portraits before 

Through my eyes 

Just see myself 

Now I know 

Im not in denial 

That I need someone else 

To see me
