a dark piano ballad about pitfalls, pills, and well-meaning but clueless friends.

lyrics

Thank you for your warnings
I´m glad my health
is of your concern
And if you think those little pills
might do me harm
Just come on down
Take a right into my mind

Will you still heal me now?
Will you still
tell me that it´s not that bad,
tell me that it´s not that hard
to take?
Will you be
scared like me
And offer me your shoulder
for the night?

You don´t know anything
about the threat
I never quite forgot
At least the taste of c*m
reminded me I´m made
of flesh and blood.
Sometimes I wish that I was born
in times where we still had our grace
and our beliefs in laws of God
and Good
and Grace

Thank you for your patience
Now that friendship´s
been put on trial.
And if you noticed how my
cynicism grows
Maybe it´s time
to read between the lines.

You don´t know anything
about the thoughts
I never meant to have
When only photographs
reminded me of times
I still could laugh.

You don´t know anything
about the void
some people have to face,
so don´t pretend to understand-
just stay right here and hold my hand-
and make me feel
like I belong
Anywhere
Anywhere
Anywhere.
