You look into my eyes, terrified as you watch me get pulled away from you,
they're too strong, powerful, unforgiving,
they pull me away faster, "goodbye my love," I whisper as you fall on your knees, afraid and vulnerable.
I can never see you again,
I can't let this happen to you again.
You've been fighting your demons for so long but now I see,
I am your demon, the one you dispise, fear, loathe
I jolt awake to see you in my arms.
I slip away without waking you, into the night
I can't hurt you anymore, I can't keep doing this to you, I run away from everything,
I thought I knew. Everything that was once familiar
knowing that I will never come back, knowing that I can't.
I'm running, I'm lost
I cross the street and I feel a sharp pain, home,
the last thing that I will ever know. I look up to see a bright light, NO!
the light goes dim and I'm falling down into the darkness, then I realize,
this is where I belong.
