You call me by my name. You must've got it from a friend. Cause people like you just don't cut it. It's people like you... It's people like you... You call me everyday. You talk me into a deep sleep. Even though I just woke up. It's people like you... It's people like you... I wish that you were different. You have no idea how hard I pray. I pray that you could be someone. Someone to take care of me in this sickness. I'm falling away from the world. But it's people like you who make it what it is. People like you... People like you... You lure me into this trap. I just got out of the last one. And with every escape comes a new precaution. Thanks for trying. But it's people like you who get rejected. You're not a man. In fact, it's people like you who are most afraid. You couldn't talk to me sober. You wouldn't want to. People like you... People like you... I'll put up a fight like a fish on the line. I'll pull 'til I die. You can carry my dead weight into the boat. And disect everything you wanted to know. Or you could just let go. December 28th 2008 |

Wow, powerful stuff here. Perhaps you should just swim away. Ida |
