I can feel it too
Please let go, just watch me jump
You know i can't let you
It's not just your own your giving up
It's mine your wasting too

You like it here no more than me
I like it less for I can see
Through these eyes, from which you hide
And cower, threatening suicide

Why, oh why would I wish to peer
By simply listening all I hear
Sickens, tars all my insides
As they glow with their golden pride

Their taunting haunts me day and night
Their laughter ringing through my mind
Tears swell up, our world stands still
My world you live in, just until
You can tear it, rip it away from me
And once its yours, you'll run, you'll flee

Away from you, pathetic child
Your interests are dull, your humour mild
You bore me stiff with your old routine
Is that smile made out of plasticine?
Are your words a script and walk an act?
How long will you convince them of that?

Don't patronise me you incessant whinge
You smoke, you drink, a constant binge
Easy for you to critisise
As your the one who has the eyes
To look, to watch, and then to judge
Look in a mirror, what have you to begrudge?

Your right, always were, always will be, I know it
But for me to agree, come all out and admit it
Hasn't been easy, so now will you free me?
So little words, to concluded so precisely
Listen close to me, for this will not repeated
I'll be the one getting rid of you, and I don't get defeated

Sorry about the word i missed out of the second to last line. I'm sure you all know what i meant to say:
Listen close to me, for this will not be repeated.
I'll correct it if/when I get published ; )
