GET YOUR COAT!

It's packing day, get your coats, you can no longer stay.

All you negative guys must be on your way.

You bring nothing to my life that is sustaining in any way.

You drain the blood that feeds my way.

Suck the life out of all that is right.

I do not care where you go, but get your coat, the idea of you staying here is a resounding no.

I get that you think you are all that, but we both know it is an illusion, and you are full of crap.

So please get your coat before I lose all hope.

Your negative ways tend to cancel out my positive praise.

Your infectious frown stands as a pending plague upon the blessing of which I am bound.

I'm sorry about my burden, how I'm so wrong,

And how I'm so stupid with all that I do.

I'm sorry about the way I am, I dont belong.

I'm sorry that I never at all deserved you.

But you can't see this part of me I'm hiding,

That's so crudely hidden under what you see?

I'm sick of crying, and I can't keep on trying,

Without you I'm worthless, you are so free.

You're my antidote that gets me past every day,

You're the one to always save me from my agony.

I wish I could show you I can't live this way.

I wish I could show you my sorrowful blasphemy.

The infectious pain quickly tears me apart,

And shatters my will within a few words.

I feel so helpless, I wish I could restart,

And go back to when I wasn't such a coward.

You're my lost antidote, come cure this poisoning;

Come reverse me, turn me to my former being.

Please stay forever and keep me from maddening,

And keep me from the edge, stop the bleeding.
