Pick Your Poison

Pick Your Poison - 1208

Running from yourself like you're stranded

And now you're exactly where

You never thought you would be

In the dark without a light to guide you

What once was a breath

Is now a gasp to survive

You left so much behind

So many questions unanswered

The other side

The crash to the burn

The fingers that picket

For your solid satisfaction

Belong to the hands

Wrapped around your neck so tight

You live today Without a care

Tomorrow will come

And I'll still be here

I gave myself to you

And you left me with lies

And there will come a time

When you have so much

But there's so little that you can touch

And still I consider you a friend

For every temporary sucker

That's in place

That you need

Is another cry

For you to return

You've been there

You've been square

But nothing in between

Now it's time to find those

Who are looking for you tonight

You live today Without a care

Tomorrow will come

And I'll still be here

I gave myself to you

And you left me with lies

And there will come a time

When you have so much

But there's so little that you can touch

And still I consider you a friend

It's hard to accept

But there's people that don't care

In a world so cold

And they seem unfair

But you've got to realise

You have a purpose

And it's not through your nose

That you can see the light

When I was scared

You picked me up

You told me never to forget

That I'll be there by your side

So here I am

We've gone too far

And it's been a long time

Since we've been at peace

We followed a part

But I still know

That behind the mask

Is a familiar face

It's you

You live today Without a care

Tomorrow will come

And I'll still be here

I gave myself to you

And you left me with lies

And there will come a time

When you have so much

But there's so little that you can touch

And still I consider you a friend
