Honest Lie, Hurtful Truth

Do I need to ask again for you to stay away from me

A monster is what I am you see

An open-minded c**t who isn’t afraid to speak his mind

Come to me, and a distasteful person you shall find

So just go, get away from here

Don’t look back, never come near

 I don’t want you and you don’t want me

So why cant you just leave me be

 

People tell me I need to stop beating myself up

To stop hurting myself and say enough

But I hurt myself in the simple hope

That a friendly hand would help me cope

With the pains of moving forward in life

Cause I’m too blind to avoid the knives

That are scattered throughout the path to the future of me

And everything that I wanted to be

 

You ask me what you can do

Does it look like I have a clue

 

I’m the blind one asking for guidance

Don’t just tell me what to do

Show me and I will try to follow you

Take my hand and guide me to enlightenment

 

Look me in the eye,

Find the lies that I have been spilling

Analyze all of my meaningless cries

And tell me what you believe in
