Falling away

I stand at the edge, so lost, don't know how to get back
Silently drifting through my emotions, so alone
Hidden behind my mask of lies and fake smiles
Making new smiles, sitting by the silent phone

Wondering what to do, which way do I turn
I love you, yes, with all my heart and soul
When I'm down you are always there to help me
When I am with you I am finally whole

Walking along, my knife hidden in my bag
Scarred on my body and scarred in my mind
Falling away from conciousness and life
Happiness is so incredibly hard to find

Surrounded by friends yet, I want to cut myself off
Don't want to drag people down with so far away
Pulling back and smiling as a fresh wound appears in my arm
But for you, I will stay, just one more day
