You used to be a friend



On whom I could depend



You've brought that to an end



With my life



I hold a knife



This punishment's for you



For all the things you do



That make me hate myself



And if you say your sorry tomorrow



I'll still crave the darkness



'Cause you won't mean it



The truth has always scared you



And I know that you'll say



I'll only go to Hell this way



But dear that's okay



As long as I don't see you there



I'm sure that I won't care



And have you ever craved the darkness



As if it was the light



And wake up starving for the shadows



In the middle of the night



Well I do



You never have



And do you know?



That the pain you give me



Only feeds my Demons



So keep it up, your doing good



I won't be here for long



And thank you



For pouring salt on my wounds



I won't ask for help again



I almost forgot



To thank you



For taking the time to let me know I'm loved



Which you've never done



And thank you



For pushing me away



When I'm so afraid



Of being left alone
