stand solo Checking In Hey, how's it going? I thought I'd check in You may have turned your back But I'm still your best friend. This search for the light Hows all of that been? Thats a rhetorical question No need to pretend You're feeling worse than before I know, cuz im you Bumbling around aimless You don't know what to do At first I was pissed off Ill admit that it's true If you love something let it go Sometimes that works with hate too You could never beat me In truth I just backed away Cuz I knew that in time You'd beg me to stay So I let you spread your wings Cuz you thought you'd fly free But I knew the whole time You'd be thinking of me You need me in your life You're meant for the dark Since I went away Your life's gotten pretty stark You think these people are good But they lead you astray Set you on this path But you know they won't stay I'm all that you got So let them all go I'm not saying anything You don't already know They don't care about your life Neither do I But here is the difference At least I don't lie We both know your worthless The light won't change that Thats no longer just me talking You see thats a fact So get rid of these people The kid, the brit, the girl with the fire The single mom, the mystery woman Your friends sister that you used to desire Im all that you need You're sick of the fight If you listen to me We can still make this right I saw your little message Where you tried to explain Like I dont already know I lived through that pain You claim I was your light But was corrupted to dark The thing is You couldn't be further from the mark I was created from necessity I was made to protect To shield you From years of abuse and neglect I thought what that meant Was to keep you alive To endure all the bad So that you could survive Over time it was clear That I needed to change Thats when my approach Had to rearrange It's the being alive That was the source of the pain Continuing to live You cannot sustain So im still trying to protect As I always have done You can look for other options But you know there are none You'll never be happy Theres too much messed up in your head So hear me when I tell you That you're better off dead When you come to your senses You know where Im at Come and find me Lets have us a chat
