I stand there waiting
Tuning out what he's saying
And I say to you, "I wish you were real"

The yelling and screaming
His threats have no meaning
As I walk up the stairs to check in my room

I'm hoping to find you
Behind my old door
I know you are waiting
But I don't know what for
Why not show yourselves
Before my tired eyes
So I know you are with me
So I know you're not lies

The old couple sits
By a fireplace that's lit
With a fire that will eventually burn out

But if you were to show me
I've no reason to be lonely
I know we'd have our own fire forever

I'm hoping to find you
Behind my old door
I know you are waiting
But I don't know what for
Why not show yourselves
Before my tired eyes
So I know you are with me
So I know you're not lies

I made you in my mind
But it's reality that binds
You into my soul, my heart, and tears

Reality can haunt
Whatever it wants
But it should have nothing to do with us

I'm standing in the road
Not a car in sight
The pouring rain completes
This dark, stormy night
Cornfields surround me
Wilderness on both sides
With my knife in my hand
I know you won't hide
I need you right now
This one very last time
Of course you won't
This night is mine
I can feel you behind me
Once more, I turn around
I finally see your faces
As I fall to the ground
"No more," I cry
But you take my hand
As the blood pours out
In streaming wet strands
I'm pulled to my feet
You look in my eyes
The last thing I know
I know you're not lies

I'm hoping to find you
Behind my old door
I know you are waiting
But I don't know what for
Why not show yourselves
Before my tired eyes
So I know you won't leave me
So I know you're not lies
