In my world of lies
You were my only constant
Standing by my side like a pillar of truth
Telling me that I wasn't a freak
That I am loved
That it's ok to be different
But then you left
And I was again alone
Forced to fend for myself against the darkness
Against the lies
I stumbled along
Groping restlessly in the dark for a hand to hold
For your hand to hold
Then the voices began speaking to me
And I starting thinking
What if the voices didn't speak in lies
But in truth?
What if you were the lier?
What if I was a freak and unloved?
For months these thoughts drifted in my mind
Taking over as I slowly withered away
Darkness and lies and truth and pain consumed me
And I was swallowed whole
