Scared Lyrics
At night I hear it creeping
At night I feel it move
I'll never sleep here anymore
I wish you never told me
I wish I never knew
I wake up screaming!
(It’s all because of you)
So real these voices in my head
When it comes back you won’t be...
Scared and lonely,
You won’t be scared,
You won’t be,
You won’t be scared and lonely,
You won’t be scared,
You won’t be lonely!
I know threes something out there,
I think I hear it move,
I’ve never felt like this before
I wish you never told me
I wish I never knew
I wake up screaming
(It’s all because of you)
So real these voices in my head
When it comes back you won’t be
Scared and lonely
You won’t be scared you won’t be
You won’t be scared and lonely
You won’t be scared you won’t be lonely
It’s all because of you
I wish you never told me
I wake up screaming now
So real these voices in my head
So real these voices in my head
I wake up screaming now
I wish you never told me
I wish I never knew
Scared and lonely,
You won’t be scared,
You won’t be,
You won’t be scared and lonely,
You won’t be scared
You won’t be lonely! x2
At night I feel it move
I'll never sleep here anymore
I wish I never knew
I wake up screaming!
(It’s all because of you)
When it comes back you won’t be...
You won’t be scared,
You won’t be,
You won’t be scared and lonely,
You won’t be scared,
You won’t be lonely!
I think I hear it move,
I’ve never felt like this before
I wish I never knew
I wake up screaming
(It’s all because of you)
When it comes back you won’t be
You won’t be scared you won’t be
You won’t be scared and lonely
You won’t be scared you won’t be lonely
I wish you never told me
I wake up screaming now
So real these voices in my head
So real these voices in my head
I wake up screaming now
I wish you never told me
I wish I never knew
You won’t be scared,
You won’t be,
You won’t be scared and lonely,
You won’t be scared
You won’t be lonely! x2

..pfft i have no idea what the...heck...this song is about...i still can't find a meaning to it.
To me, this song i can relate to it, because when me and my gf had our own apartment, she had some guy over at our place for the week i was out of town
At night I hear it creeping At night I feel it move Ill never sleep here anymore
I wish you never told me I wish I never knew I wake up screming
Its all because of you
and everynight after she told me that i could not get the thoughts that were in my head and i could just picture them together in my apartment and i couldn't sleep there anymore
@hobbes67 The way I relate is pretty similar. My girl friend told me that she was planning on leaving me and then changed her mind. Ever since then my insecurity of her leaving me has become huge. I think thats how the lines I wish you never told me I wish i never knew relate to me. And then at night especially I get the thought of her ingrained in my head which makes it hard for me to fall asleep so that's I can't sleep here anymore. And when it says when jt comes back you won't be...

And when it says when jt comes back you won't be scared and lonely. I see that as a metaphor as when my confidence comes back I won't be so scared of losing her or feel lonely when she's not around. And the verses I feel "it" is a metaphor for the thought of her leaving
I think it's about something someone told him that has been fused into his memory. He can't get rid of that memory and now it haunts him whenever he tries to go to sleep.
Yeah um... whont -> won't
i agree with hobbes67 i mean that what he basedly talking about and if it's not that then he must be talking about the fact that someone told him something and he can't deal with it
Creeping through the house, makes it sound like something that has always been there but he's just turned a blind eye to.
But then the part about wishing he never knew, makes it sound like something that happened that he didn't realize was bad and now that he realizes it's bad, he doesn't want to think about it. (an example... a child gets raped then they go to school and hear that when someone touches you this way it's wrong and suddenly they're like "OMG! I was raped!")
To me it seems like it could be about schizophrenia or hearing voices.
'So real these voices in my head When it comes back you wont be scared and lonely"
Saying that he's hearing voices in his head, and when he's scared and lonely he hears them and then maybe he's not scared and lonely anymore.
'I wish you never told me I wish I never knew I wake up screaming'
He's saying that he wishes no one ever told him that he had voices in his head, or that perhaps he's a schiz. He's saying he wish he never knew about it, and that it scares him and he wakes up screaming when he hears them in his dreams, perhaps?
Though, theres always a possibility that it could be about a child scared of sleeping in their room because of monsters in his room or something.
' At night I hear it creeping At night I feel it move Ill never sleep here anymore '
At night, the kid THINKS he's hearing monsters in his house and he thinks he's feeling it move around, and he never wants to sleep in his bed again so perhaps he goes to sleep in his parents room?
'I wish you never told me I wish I never knew I wake up screming'
A second meaning to this, with the monsters part, is that maybe someone told the kid about monsters? You know, scaring the kid into believing it's all true. He wishes he never knew 'monsters exist'.
'Its all because of you So real these voices in my head When it comes back you wont be scared and lonely'
It's all the person who told him's fault. Because he believes in this monster so much he thinks he hears voices, he thinks they are 'so real'. And he thinks that when the monster comes back he wont be scared or lonely anymore because he'll run to his parent's room where he thinks he'll be safe.
'I know theres something out there I think I hear it move Ive never felt like this before '
He's convinced theres something out there. He THINKS he's hearing it, though maybe its something else but he doesn't realize or think of it that way. He's never felt that scared before.
Though, this is all just my interpretation but maybe I just have weird views on this song or something. :P
I went to see them in concert recently: Buzzfest 6, Nashville, Starwood Ampitheatre. They played this song and he explaind what it was about. When they were recording their first album they would spend long hours in the studio and sometimes spend the night. Apparently the studio was haunted or possesed because there was a spirit that would wake them up in the middle of the night making noises and such, hence the spooky lyrics.
You're all wrong except themavrik.
When I saw Three Days Grace in concert, Adam said it's about this girl (I think he said her name was Emily) who haunted the place where they recorded the album, and "scared the shit" out of them.
Live4music is right, they told to story at the concert in KC, it was at an old farm house or something and they just wanted to get out of there.
