Them
She
He
Were all my friends
once
They said they'd never leave me alone
She told me I had nothing to fear
He said that if I was near them it wouldn't find me
Boy was I wrong about
Them
She
He
They were never really my
friends
It's true that your only friends can just disappear on you
Just like that
gone from ever existing
I knew they were gone
from the moment I woke up in complete darkness
There was nothing I could do to save myself
It was going to find me and end my chances of being normal girl
Or at least at "normal" as I could be with this thing following me
It doesn't kid around when it takes you away
It will take you from your world and break you down till there's nothing
But a shell of a human being left to go through the motions of life
When that happens there's no real reason to keep going
There's no point
When the darkness takes you away at midnight
Let it happen because no one will be there to stop it
Don't fight darkness it will use any of you me struggles against you if you choose to fight back
It's just between you and it
Everyday and night
It's just you and it trying to win a battle that was never yours to end
