sleep well;

I have kept quiet.
I have kept to myself.
I've watch you burn yourself alive.
I've heard you cry at night.

andforwhat?
a town that eats itself from the inside out.
Faceless people with bottled up anger and resentment for eachother.
People who love you for a minute, and rip you apart the next.
then tell you you're the one who's fake.
"you're the one with the problem"


This place has nothing to offer me.
This place where hurt feelings turn into harsh words.
and harsh words turn into broken hearts.
and broken hearts soon become vengeful.
and everyone is to blame.

you say you want out?
you say you want a better way to live?

then stop running after the same people who tear you down.
the same people who cause you to stumble.
the people who have made you so cold.

you could be so much more than this.
this hot-bed of anger.
this stranger I don't care to know.

but knowing you.
you'll stay.
you'll let them win.

because she sings you to sleep.
with words like a dream.
that float from the top of your head,
to the back of your throat.
and then down even further.
till you forget where you are.
you forget where you stand.



so this is goodbye.
because I can't be an indifferent whore.
because I can't hurt you like the rest.

but mainly because.
i can do so much better than you.
then here.
