lyrics

Dawn, I was alone today
stranded in my room
aborted and alone
Dawn, don't go to sleep tonight
Kelly's in my room
she said she never really went away

You said she'd passed away
Her ghost is haunting me
Then Dawn says
"Oh stupid child
I don't believe you
so be on your way
Oh Stupid child
you want my honest opinion?
I think you're slipping away"

Dawn, her shadow's haunting me
I saw it in my room today
oh can't you make it go away?
Dawn, Kelly's been touching me
she slipped into my sleep last night
she said she's trying to find a place to stay

You said she'd passed away
Her ghost is haunting me
Then Dawn says
"You stupid child
I don't believe you
so be on your way
Oh Stupid child
you want my honest opinion?
I think you're slipping away"

Dawn, seems Kelly needs a friend
death is very cold she says
and she doesn't want to be alone
So Dawn, I'll take my life tonight
The razor slits my veins
I'm bleeding white bright light
