The loss of your natural tender warming embrace
An unconditional love stolen in haste
Had left you cold and confused, alone and without place
You'd do anything to reclaim what was lost
Alleviating the pain no matter what the cost
Plunging darkness into the tunnels beneath the skin
You noticed your reflection able to smile again
Hunting down veins became your daily bread
As well as living each day like you're already dead
While endless delusions meant to make you think no one else is there,
Heavy eyes bring down the curtains to hide those who truly care
Covering the world with the deceit you keep spilling
However, your eyes speak every word your mouth isn't willing
You tell yourself to fake it until you make it
Until one appears, seeing through your bullshit
Someone who reaches out a helping hand
A hand you don't trust
Thinking it another scam
Just another man's scheme of fake lust
But through his lips, a quiet voice seeps,
"There's no scheme, Jelly Bean,
the only one out to get you is you.
When peering into the mirror, waiting for it to break,
You can't yet see what I see,
That pain is beauty
and when I see you,
I see a lot of heartache.
Remember, when the dragon gets harder to chase
and you still can't let go of that warming embrace,
Let go of the false love you believe is true
Only then will you see the initial love you lost
Has always been there and will never leave you."
