1-13-16 fifty two days clean (god I wish that number didn't matter at all)

Hold me close.
The people in the real world are full of betrayal and lies.
It's always my fault.
I fucked it all up again.

Please don't leave me like they always do.
I need you;
I really need you.
You see everything inside of me,
They see what they choose to.

I sink down the wall, falling to the floor in the red lighting
And it all feels so real.
But I don't want to deal with people right now,
I want to get so far away from everyone and everything, that they can't find me even if they tried.

Days like this I miss the summer,
When these streets weren't cold, dark, and heavy;
They were limitless, beautiful, and free.

God, I wish you weren't the only one thinking I'm not insane.
I'm alone.
I'm practically invisible.
And I think that's why I belong to you.

Please, don't give up on me tonight, Change.
Let's write a story,
Get the hell out of our heads.
Take my soul and intertwine it with yours
So I'll only hate half of myself.
But it seems, in your presence,
I'm everything I need to be.
Oh please just save me.

This probably makes zero sense and I'm sorry. It's probably shit and doesn't fit here in Haunted but it does to me. For reasons I can't explain. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
