Justify the Means

Being a daughter is only good sometimes
Having a best friend that loves you is a fear sometimes
Why does it cost them so much to keep me alive?
When being alive is the fear sometimes

I've got all the tools I should need to function
But I still take the wrong road when I get to the junction
Don't matter if it's signed it won't change my mind
When it comes to the roads I guess that I'm blind

But do the ends justify the means? (the ends the means)
Sacrifice my safety to compensate for being me
I know the ends may justify the means (the ends the means)
But letting go scares me
Scares me

They think that I'm better they're cheering me on now
But my illness is clever she's fooled them all somehow
My grief is contagious my tears are acidic
If they hide low enough they might just dodge it

But do the ends justify the means? (the ends the means)
Sacrifice my safety to compensate for being me
I know the ends may justify the means (the ends the means)
But letting go scares me

But does the healing justify the pain?
Everyone's lying to my face and telling me it's all OK
While I'm crying on my birthday

I know the ends may justify the means (the ends the means)
But letting go scares me
But letting go scares me
