Carefree... more like Careless

I ripped off my eye lids
Told you I'd keep them peeled

My knees are bruised and my lips weak
Tried to pray but collapsed in defeat
Nothing like being a fake and cheat

I cut my tongue on your sharp words
Misery never tasted so sweet

My hands reach to tighten the noose
Pain lurks in every path I choose
Every direction is another way to lose

Come be my muse and take away my freedom
I'll tear my heart out just to feed it to you

Yes, it's true I'm a monster inside
Not the only one to go bump in the night
Come a little closer, I won't bite

Strip me of all these delusional insecurities
Show me just how ugly I really am

You were never really going to save me anyway
