Sometimes I scare myself

When I get like

This when I see

Everything as clear and

Different. The World starts

To move without me

On it and I get

Frightened I can’t breathe

What the hell is happening. Please

Don’t leave me alone with

Myself tonight.

 

I think maybe I’m

Losing my mind but

Can’t be ‘cause it’s already

Lost to the wolves that

I let out the day

When I gave up

Trying to be better. Please

Don’t leave me alone with

My demons tonight.

 

Don’t know what to

Do. Think I’m losing

You. Don’t go I

Can try again harder

Than the times before

I won’t drift. I’ll

Close the door in my

Mind and keep the voices

Inside. Please

Don’t leave me alone with

My ghosts tonight.

 

The World starts to

Move without me on

It. I close my eyes

Try to pretend I

Feel something—Lies.

There is only me

And all other finer

Points of Hatred

And Greed and

Love are gone. Please

Just leave me alone with

Myself tonight.
