My Dark Friend

I’ll make you a deal
Just promise you’ll try,
Keep taking those pills
And swallow you’re pride.

“I’ll always be here”
Heard it too many times,
When push comes to shove
Just bullshit and lies.

I see you.
You see me.
I won’t hide.

I’m awake now.
I’m watching.
Im outside.

So close to breaking
Selfish I know,
Got so much to live for
But please let me go.

The feelings are real
The pain is the truth,
I’m fighting this battle
Can’t see a way through.

But I see you.
You see me.
I won’t hide.

I’m awake now.
I’m watching.
Im outside.

Maybe I’m crazy.
Maybe I’m blind.
Maybe I’m wrong,
Baby I’ve tried.
Counterfeit faces.
Stapled on smiles.
Centre of attention,
Baby I’m tired.

So who will I be?
When it comes to an end.
Can’t beat this Demon,
So I’ll make it my friend.

I see it.
It sees me.
I won’t hide.

It’s awake now.
It’s watching.
It’s inside.
