Lyrics and translation
Original
I'll show you what you need to see and nothing more.
At least I got the decency to shut the door. You said that you want all of me, but I know you're a liar.
Every time I let you in, I start to hear them tires.
In the middle of the night, in the back of my mind, with a chill running down my neck.
So I bite my tongue and I lie in self-defense. Ask me how I've been, I'll say I'm great.
But under my skin, I'm not okay. Honey, I've been scared to death, looking in the mirror.
Just another day in the kingdom of fear. Ask me how it goes, I'll say I'm fine.
But if you look close, I ain't doing alright.
Honey, I've been scared to death, wipe away the tears. Just another day in the kingdom of fear, the kingdom of fear.
Baby, I've been building walls too high to climb.
I hope you know it's not your fault, it's by design. I know I've been a lot of things, but I won't be a burden.
I won't be that person who calls you when I'm hurting.
In the middle of the night, in the back of my mind, with a chill running down my neck.
So I bite my tongue and I lie in self-defense. Ask me how I've been, I'll say I'm great.
But under my skin, I'm not okay. Honey, I've been scared to death, looking in the mirror.
Just another day in the kingdom of fear. Ask me how it goes, I'll say I'm fine.
But if you look close, I ain't doing alright.
Honey, I've been scared to death, wipe away the tears. Just another day in the kingdom of fear.
Oh, I've been hurting worse than bad.
I need someone who's got my back. Oh, I've been hurting worse than bad.
I need someone, but if you ask me how I've been, I'll say I'm great.
But under my skin, I'm not okay. Honey, I've been scared to death, looking in the mirror.
Just another day in the kingdom of fear. Ask me how it goes, I'll say I'm fine. But if you look close,
I ain't doing alright. Honey, I've been scared to death, wipe away the tears.
Just another day in the kingdom of fear, the kingdom of fear.
