You said, "Don't go away."
I said, "I want to stay."
Just know that deep inside,
I pray for my escape.
I'm held back by these chains,
I'm held back by these pains,
Being tortured while torturing,
I cry out tears of blood.
I cough and spit and sputter,
the taste of metal calms me.
I laugh and scream and stutter,
the mind of me now crazy.
I say that "I'm okay,"
I say, "You shouldn't worry."
Our meeting a mistake,
just go ahead and kill me.
These dark lies bind me,
they bind you, too.
These dark lies are
out to kill us, too.
These dark lies stay,
screaming, "Go away!"
These dark lies make
me keep running crazy.
