Understand

For a second I think I'm not lonely
I think I'm just bored
Or going crazy alone in my brain
So I call on someone to guide me
To care and just be there
But I'm screaming at my reflection
Cuz all my friends are medication
Take away all sensation
And my guitar stings become razor blades
These words are just products of my manic rage
You are the smell before the rain
You are the blood flowing through my veins
You are the light shining on my face
You are the saving grace
I'm asking questions underwater
No one can hear me

Silence cuts like a knife
Or a shard of glass
Eyes burn like a lighter
Or slightly too warm water
Fingers have gone numb
I have such unfortunate luck
I am afraid
Afraid of what
Afraid of falling
Afraid of failing
Afraid of not being good enough
For who
For you

Why don't they understand
Why can't they understand
Why don't you understand
Understand what
Understand everything
Understand nothing
Understand you are everything to me
Understand that you are all I have
Understand I'll never heal
Understand that I'm a human being
I can't feel anything
There are no stars tonight
Im sitting in my home as it falls apart
I can do nothing but watch
As the foundation crumbles beneath my feet
And you stand in the front lawn
And set fire to the world I know
The roof is caving in
I'm crushed by the weight of your words
I think I'm dying
Am I dying
Would anyone notice if I was dying
So now I'm crying out for help
And no one is there
Because I'm alone.
Is anybody out there?

I'm alone
