Sometimes in the night   When she's alone   It doesn't seem like she wants to be   Sometimes in the night   When she's alone   And the wall closes in      Sometimes in the night   When she's so cold   And all the darkness frightens her   Sometimes in the night   When it's too cold   And she gets paralyzed      The essential voices are capturing me   She feels as trapped as trapped could be   Alone in the night   All she wants is to scream   The essential voices are capturing me      Sometimes in the night   When she's grown old   And all the memory stares back at her   Sometimes in the night   When she's grown old   And it still closes in      I don't know why you're so kind   And then laughing at me   I don't know why you're so kind   Then you're laughing at me
