5 steps til hell

Half hearted smiles and

fake laughs hide the anger

the hatred for the world i

live in

You're illusions aren't worth

seeing and your fantasies

aren't worth living in

I'd rather take 5 steps back to

hell then to fall in love again

Trapped in these thoughts

i'll die lonely and confused

It's a lonely world for two

so turn your back and let me

watch you drive away into the sunset

while you leave me here to bleed

and suffer til morning

Simply put, life sucks, but nothing is too bad that you can't come to me. I'll always be here, and I won't look away if you have something to say. If you ever need anything, don't be afraid to ask. If I can help, I will. If I can't, then I'll push myself past my known limits to help. Your too precious to me, and to not know you, would throw me over the edge. So, take 5 steps away from hell, and come back to me beautiful. You said things work out in the end...and it might just be me, but I feel that "the end" is sneaking up on us faster than we want to believe. I don't want to be wrong, not this time.
