when i feel sad, i don't like company.
i will try and look for reasons to stay
but it is hard when my mind presents
reasons as to why i should leave.
because i am worthless,
because i am useless,
because i am ugly,
because i am a waste.
[i am a waste of a human.]
isn't it weird how it is the metal
that stops the bad thoughts...
and you know exactly what i mean
don't you?
wherever there is s p a c e
and it'll make you feel okay
again soon.
and it is then when you learn to
trust the demons inside your
head. they're your friends.
[my demons are my friends.]
and you might even let them
stay for a while; they're not the
bad ones. they stopped the pain.
they h e l p e d you stay alive.
isn't that just a beautiful thing?
[my demons are my best friends.]
and soon enough "the demons" become
y o u r demons, because letting go feels
foreign.. and why would you let go of
something that can make you feel
100% new?
when i feel sad, please just hug me.
