Lyric

There’s a world where I can go
Tell my secrets to

In my room
In my room (in my room)

In this world I lock out
All my worries and my fears

In my room
In my room (in my room)

Do my dreaming and my scheming
Lie awake and pray?
Do my crying and my sighing
Laugh at yesterday?

Now it’s dark and I’m alone
But I won’t be afraid

In my room
In my room (in my room, in my room)
In my room (in my room, in my room)
