Clawing its way out of my soul
Out of the deepest darkest pits
The cruel unnerving voice returns
Making sure I lose my grip

Tearing down my happiness
Taking over my everyday life
An endless stream of negativity
Each word cuts through me like a knife

Your all alone in this world
Your friends have left you for dead
They lied, betrayed and hurt you
Your better off with just me instead

As true as the words seem
Your the one who drove them away
You made me lock down all my emotions
I was happy before you came

Were you really happy tho?
Surrounded by all those "friends"
You knew the truth behind each one
So why did you even pretend?

He's merely speaks the truth
I pretended not to see
I thought maybe if I accepted their faults
Perhaps they could love me for me

So in the end you knew
You blamed it all on me
I was willing to playthe scrape goat
Cause all I wanted was for you to be free

Why does my freedom come at a cost?
Its the cold hard truth of reality
But am I any better off knowing now
Was this really the key?

If not now then when?
Would you continue living a lie
Would you rather have them say it to your face
Then secretly stab you in the back

We both know they wont ***** their hands
Nor will they tarnish their image
Its better being one step ahead
then waiting for them to finish

I'm standing in silence all alone
Watching my friends continue their lies
I've plastered on a fake smile and grin
But all I want to do is cry

Maybe it seems better to be one step ahead
To protect myself from getting hurt
But blocking out the truth and actully being happy
Doesn't sound as bad as being an insecure little introvert

I guess its true
What people say
In situations such as this
The phrase
Ignorance is bliss
Is truly quiet befitting
