High and Dry

You'd kill yourself for recognition,

Kill yourself to never ever stop

You broke another mirror,

You're turning into something you are not

Is everything starting to look different to you? Do you see yourself in a different situation than you did before. You look and you're not the same and you never want to be again, except for that little voice in the back of your head that is whispering to you and making you doubt yourself over and over again. You look again and you are full of self-pity,self-hatred and regret. Then you get ready, cover your face with the mask and go off to face the day and the world, thinking everyone is better than you.

Drying up in conversation,

You will be the one who cannot talk

All your insides fall to pieces,

You just sit there wishing you could still make love

Waking up next to someone you dont know and hating every second of it. Whether you have known them for years or days or months. You dont know them anymore. It snakes its way into every thought you have while with them and its tongue lashes out and you say what it tells you to. Then...you have this thing that you cant take back, that you didnt really want to say. And there comes the guilt.

It's the best thing that you ever had,

The best thing that you ever, ever had

It's the best thing that you ever had,

The best thing you ever had has gone away

They were everything to you

Tears were exchanged

Hateful words

Fights along the way

A hand to hold

A shoulder to cry on

Emotions

Love given and shared

All taken away

Whether in one brief instant, one pure tragedy or long years of sadness with nothing new to give.

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
