Late night and collarbones
All the while, I stand alone Waiting for a savior, waiting for an angel To save me from this horrid room To save me from this impending doom. For they’re pounding on my door again, Shrill voices lingering in my fragile head. (and I don’t know if I can take it.) I don’t know if I’ll make it. Stale bread and diet coke She pins me down just to watch me choke On her sickening sense of victory She knows she’s gotten the best of me. Day and night, night and day They know that I can’t look away. Threatened by their presence, But frightened by their absence. (I don’t know if I’ll make it.) Two Sisters in a Fight A fight to the death, a fight for my life. A sinister war to steal my soul And leave nothing after to let anyone know That I was ever accomplished or had self control Though they’re out of my body, They know they aren’t out of my mind They hope one day I’ll leave it all behind. (I don’t know if I can take it.) Leaving Stale Bread and Diet Coke Facing Late Nights and Collarbones Dreaming of a golden savior, Waiting for a starlit angel To take me by the broken hand And hold me till I fully mend Mentality healed, soul cleansed Left with a piece of mind that cannot bend.
