I am someone But in the face of you I'm nothing With your something I can't breathe You're my peace of madness Won't let me go cause you want total damage Tried to drown you out with my poison but it didn't work So I pushed you down to go higher to the uncommon grounds But you're relentless I wish we'd never been acquainted Cause now my light's been tainted I've been fading and you've been watching it all You do the impossible something no one's ever done Deflated my soul until I became the little one I screamed out in my mind in an abyss of complete darkness with no sense of time And while that happened my closet was found and opened ...and skeletons soon became live bodies For the world to see I made up masks to wear while you partied in me but despite it all, you were constant company when I was afraid and so lonely You're stuck on me and now I'm stuck on you because misery loves company Just as much as it loves you
