Prompt / Lyrics
I swear it started small Just a shadow on the wall Like my eyes were playing tricks again I laughed it off at first Said my mind was just rehearsed From the nights I never slept in But it stayed when I blinked Yeah, it moved when I breathed Like it wanted me to notice Now it’s tracing every step Every thought in my head And it’s smiling when I’m broken I don’t wanna say it out loud Feels like it gets closer when I do now Every mirror, every dark room I feel it breathing when I’m not in control Don’t look up, don’t look up It’s right there on the ceiling Wide grin, too big Like it’s feeding off the feeling Teeth stretch, eyes gone But I feel it staring through me If I scream, it just laughs Like it already knew me Don’t look up, don’t look up But I can’t keep pretending It’s not real, it’s not real But it’s never really ending Heavy chest, can’t run Hear it calling from above “Come a little closer, I just wanna be your love…” Now it follows in the day In the light it fades to gray But I swear I see it breathing In reflections, in the glass If I move, it kinda lags Like it’s glitching just to tease me I don’t feel like myself Like there’s someone else Pulling wires in my system Every thought gets too loud And the silence screams now Like it’s waiting for permission I tried to cover every light But it’s brighter in the black of night Tell me why it knows my name Before I even think it Don’t look up, don’t look up It’s right there on the ceiling Wide grin, too big Like it’s feeding off the feeling Teeth stretch, eyes gone But I feel it staring through me If I run, it appears Like it’s always gonna choose me Don’t look up, don’t look up But I’m losing my direction Every step, every breath Feels like part of its reflection Heavy bass in my head Like a heartbeat out of sync “Just a little closer now… Don’t think, don’t think…” Maybe it’s me Maybe I broke something I can’t see Maybe that smile is mine Just… bigger than it should be If I let it in Would it finally let me sleep? Or would I disappear And it’d be the one they keep… Don’t look up, don’t look up (It’s inside me, I can feel it) Wide grin, stitched tight (I don’t know what’s even real, yeah) Teeth sharp, closing in (It’s not leaving, it’s not leaving) I’m not me, I’m not me But it loves the way I’m breaking Don’t look up, don’t look up (It’s not over, it’s beginning) Say my name, say my name Now it’s underneath my skin and If I smile just right I can almost make it stop— … …but it smiles back.
