So it's the darkness that envelops you.
A point where you just want to give up.
Trying to be good to yourself
Is just too hard
You tried and began to fall
No one saved you from falling too far.

Down the hole you fall,
And you feel every hit,
Remember every word that slithered out
Of friendly mouths.
Trying to understand what it all meant

Pictures of people who left
Who cared about you until they
Compared you to what they could have.
You just weren't good enough,
And you knew that from the start
But for some reason
You always let them touch your heart.

You wish they would just understand
That they can't hold your hair,
And then not hold your hand.
But at this point, it's all you have.
Be used, or be alone.
All you want is to stay out
Stay out of the darkness as long as you can.
