lyrics

No no stop your talk
You never let up just go away
You twist the truth and you tell me lies
You are not me though you have my name
You're the shadow on the stair
I'm watching you I know you're there

No no shut your mouth
I've got your number don't start again
I won't listen to all your words
The criticising and the blame
I believed you all these years
But I don't want to live in fear

Chorus:
You can run you can run as fast as you can
But you'll never get away cos I'm the boogie man (x2)
I'm in the cupboard, I'm under the bed,
I'm in the dark, I'm in your head
I'm in your head

Oh but if you really leave
How will I know who I am
The person I believed was me
Was defined by all this shame
Just have to let go, don't know,
Present, groundless,
Breathing, being stay

Repeat Verse 1 and Chorus
