Lest you know.

Walking eternal in the shadows of grace

Digging through photos to remember her face

You run for your life, yet you stay in one place

We try to escape our purposeless fate

We left it too late. Our demons have strayed

They jump out of our heart and into our head

They’re planning on staying they’re making their beds

They pull at my strings and push on my threads

They're pressing these buttons till I’m seeing red

I called my therapist, and they called the Feds

I try to smile, but a frown comes instead

I hide my eyes from the tears I have bled

I dreamed I lived, but it was all in my head

You say it’s just worry, and I say it is dread

You say it’s just quitting, and I say it’s dead

Please don’t come closer. This’ll end in regret

Like a rat, when it’s cornered I’m gonna lash out

Like a fat man at Christmas, I’m gonna pig out

I pray you’re not bothered when my secret comes out

I hope my true self won’t leave you in doubt
