There are no friends Just illusions that betray. Another drop in the ocean, Another morn, another day. Tired of your fables and your lies, Your eyes on me stay as you sharpen your blade and shoot daggers through your gaze. I remember still the pain, The bruises, the scarlet stains Now scars just remain As a reminder of my shame. Once I too was full of light, Full of grace. As I fought against your demons, And drove away your bane. Mercy, my weakness I was the last one to stay, And so I learned the hard way It's better to be feared, Than lied to for a day
