I prayed to the god I don't believe in again
Please, I said
Just stop me from needing a friend
Help me believe or at least pretend
That being alone was the better end
That what I did, I did for them
But I had hoped they would see
and maybe not let me leave
tell me I was important to the family
but in the end they packed my bags for me
asked me for my key
got new locks and hid the door
so I couldn't come back anymore

I suppose disease is only thing that ties us together
