Dani Laundry - New Night Lyrics

In the darkness of an empty space
She hears its voice but she can't look at its face
It's hard to ignore
But she's not really sure that it's there

Yellow paint dims next to deep velvet green
She knows it's lurking, living here unseen
Sitting still in the light
She knows she can't fight or run

I am who I am
I could never change
Or start over again
This is the only way

Push away the things
That just bring me pain
Let me stay the same
Tell me who I am
Tell me who you want me
To be

Slip into the eyes of somebody else
Easy to believe you were always yourself
Actor playing a role
But it's taking its toll to pretend

Water starts to leak and fill up the room
Struggling as watchful eyes look and loom
It's a harrowing way
But I won't let it be
Not today, not ever
I'm driving away

Take control of the mood
Or leave it to waste
Can't bear to wonder, can't even choose
Strictly following fate

Like putty in my hands
The will can bend
Patterns can end
Shattered in the light
Catching the next flight

I am who I am
I could never change
Or start over again
This is the only way

Push away the things
That just bring me pain
Let me stay the same
Tell me who I am
Tell me who you want me
To be
