Sometimes I wish The shadow I hide in would smother me Slowly rip the breath from me and set it aflame Burn away all my self-consciousness and fears of lies Then, maybe, I could fade away like the nights fog Thick and haunting, I could hide from everything and engulf all Then fade away with a gentle whisper from you Only to lay down and bleed in my gutter alone Looking up to see you spit and walking away It that you stopped trying Turn around and walk away from this cloud That lie has turned black and it's looking for blood Occasionally it's better to seek solace and forget It seems you've sought and found your place to hide
