Always watching, waiting. Across my heart; fear splattered.
Never safe, Never free; peace shattered.
X marks the spot; don't dig for treasure, dig for purpose.
In my nightmares, I hide- I can't help but feel nervous.
Every second, tapping- checking. Can't you see my life, it's wrecking.
Twitching, flinching, can't keep still. But-
You don't notice, 'cause hiding takes a lot of skill.
