Sometimes I wonder if I'm here
Or if I'm just floating on thin air
Is my mind where I think it is?
Or is it somewhere else?
I don't know anymore
I try so hard to bottle up my emotions
Afraid that they'll explode,
Making a fool of myself
I have a new friend, by the way
He's a Blank Stare
That helps me get through the day
Without him, who knows where
I'd be? Overwhelmed probably
You can't blame me for hiding
It's not my fault
It's not my place
Have you met my pet?
I call her Bittersweet
She adds flavor to my tears
When they need to come
Without her, who knows where
I'd be? Drowning probably
Who ever said Misery loves Company
Was lying
You couldn't put them in the same room
All they do is judge and curse,
Accuse and cry
Those twins were doomed
The day they were born
Without them, who knows where
I'd be? Somewhere better, probably
The day is bright but my sun is dark
Shadows creep along my clock
Another day, another minute
Another excuse to just burn it
Then there's Time
That ugly old beast
He eats our lives like
Some kind of feast
Waiting, watching, tasting, digesting
Without him, who knows who
We'd be? So much younger, probably
