When No One's Around

 

It's two in themorning, I’m down to my last cigarette
But I go ahead and light it, breath deep and exhale
Jack in a glass, on the rocks I pour more from the bottle
Looking down at all the things I can manage to remember
Through the photographs I sometimes find
I'm laughing as I'm crying
Kind of feel like I'm dying
here in this place
no since of self or balance
At night I lay in restlessness among the voices in my head
Telling lies to make me want to run and hide

When no one’s around
I have to be my own best friend
I'm the only one here to tell me
the things I need to hear, but I can't hear myself think
for the crying and screaming all the time,
there's no one willing to hold my hand,
Cause all my friends have their own
mess
And it just enough to masks the scars I create,
in her heart
On my arm, But I try not to take it
that far
Standing on the outside of what could be real
Banging on the window shouting “just
let me in!”

When I think I'm going to far
I try to take back my heart
I try to pretend I'm so tough
gonna take this whole world on
Bare it on my shoulders like a Heroin
But inside I just wish I could hide
make this all just disappear in to thin air
this is all just too much to with stand

Its like a sad country song...going on and buzzing my mind.
Very nice and melancholic.
