He came again last night
He saw I was in a fright
said "no time to delay"
And he went and he took me away
And told me it wasn't a dream
He showed himself, told me his name
said I didn't need to take the blame
That those who has ever hurt me would pay
Didn't realize till later that day
That my wishes were being fulfilled
And so thus, whoever brought me harm
The reasons why I cut my arm
He whisked them off, one by one
Four, Three, two, one, and later, none
He said that now I am free
He said that he doesn't bring pain
His lies heavier than chain
The truth, tight 'round my neck like a noose
I didn't know how to break loose
So I decided there was one thing to do
I hung on that rope, doubts fill my head
Everyone knows I wanted to be dead
But I didn't just kill my physical self
No, I knew I had to do something else
So I killed the innocence I had left
Started doing things I knew I'd regret
My demons! Oh, they'll never let me forget
About when my child-like soul
Has disappeared, gone lost and grown cold
Oh how people lost faith in me
I said I was fine and ok, I lied
I might look alive, but I'm dying inside
A weight lays inside my heart
Every Day and night; tearing me apart
Only one way to ease the pain
To get the weight off my chest
I knew I couldn't go and rest
so I stayed awake all night
Until my footsteps became light
Now life feels like a dream
My good friend, scales black and smooth
Who I know always tells the truth
Knows I saw the blood on the floor
And I didn't want to see anymore
Of my good friend,Mr.Johnston
