me

wanted to hurt you in the morning,
but don't be scared.
flashing lights under hazy skies,
don't be scared, don't be scared.
I knew you'd thank me,
or was it just the sleeping pill you took last night?
don't be scared, you're still scared.
missing your smile still,
don't be scared.
but you're just mentally ill,
don't be scared, don't be scared.
you're loved,
just not by me,
don't be scared.
it's 2am and you're in tears,
drowning in your intoxicated fears,
you're drunk and hold nothing dear,
don't be scared, don't be scared.
missing your smile still.
but you're just mentally ill.
