So I swallow

Sometimes when I wake in the morn
Aroused from dreams of you
Cold sweat will smother my forehead
A pill I'll swallow then a few

Not the ones that leave your mouth dry
But the ones named pride and fear
The ones that want to stand between us
The ones that hate my dear

When I wake I want to run
Into your reassuring arms
Pride will take and try to ruin
But I will not let it ruin what is ours
So I swallow

Next comes fear knocking on the door
The door that leads to my open heart
I shut it out I want it...

(chorus:) 
Have you ever cried
So hard you thought you'd die
You die so cold inside
If only you'd actually die. 
Then the pain'd be gone
So gone but you're not alone
The pain it follows you here
Inside your shell, so near
Throw up the beast inside
Then your vomit you try to hide
From those criticizing eyes
That shun those who wish to die
I love the way you speak
Lies between sharp-edged teeth
Skin so pale that it shines
Blood red lipstick, you swear it's mine 
Pull out this knife and watch me cut
A line so deep, life's...

I made it. 
I made it to the peek of destination
I made it not by myself
With you in front of me to pull me up
You could of dropped me
I shook in your hold
But look at me now
Look at the clouds 
and there lies my soul. 
I made it.

I made it up
When people said I would fall
I made it up
Look at me now! So tall am I now!
I made it up here in the sky
My arms spread wide
I feel I can fly
But I ain't no bird
As human, jumping means falling
And falling means crawling
And I'm staying standing
Out here on the...
