A friend is someone who can see the truth and pain in you even when you are fooling everyone else.


I'm broken
You're twisted
Together we're missing
Something vital
To survival

Where did it all go?
The insanity
Your vanity
It took control
It broke morals
My heart beats hard
My blood boils
I want to scream

I don't know about you
But I can't stay
I'm in pain anyway
The pain became unbearable
I locked away my fears
Locked away I tears

We tried so hard to hide
To lock away this lie
But it won't work
I see this now
The lie inside won't hide
No the lie inside can't hide
Why did I try so hide to run away
From that which protects me?

I hurt so much
I don't know why
Please save me
From this lie
I made myself

Please save me from this lie
I made myself

Lies make feel strong, like you can beat that which goes against you.
Lies make you weak. They make you unable to face reality and you lost to your enemy. True strength is facing your weaknesses and fighting against them.
You can save the rest for later.
