Recovery
Turn out the lights
I see nothing
The shiny blade makes me feel alright
Makes me less of a monster
Numbs me
I want to be dead inside
Turn the lights dim
Let me see the familiar face again
Force me to see hope
Force me out of the dark
Make me live
Turn the lights bright
I'm not dead yet
I've finally realized
That shiny blade never
Made me feel alright
The lights are bright
I see you by my side
Dear friend of mine
I made a promise
That I will no longer break
You are by my side
And that makes everything alright
The lights are bright
I'm not alright
I am scarred
And I am a monster
But recovery is a long road
Here it goes
