She dreamed of paradise

I wiped the tear from my cheek

They all said that they would be here for me

But it's clear that they weren't sincere

Because where are they when I'm in fear?

Fear of my own self-distruction

Outsiders say "Dear you're too beautiful for that"

Yet others say "I don't want to hear it anymore"

But I say I can make it any more clear

That I hate these demons inside of me

Who whisper in my ear

"You better keep that blade near"

I try to fight back saying I threw them all out last year

Yet I'm reminded that I could simply steer myself  to those kitchen sheers

Because this constant self-hate is all I can hear

It's like someone who was sober and having their first beer

And maybe it's only one

Yet it still brings back the feeling of sheer addiction

But for me it's the feeling that we all live on the sphere

Yet I'm feeling like I live in isolation 

Like God never gave me the correct gear

To function like everyone else

So instead of comfort they led the jeer

Shouting, "You're different you don't deserve to be here"
