Me and my friends, we're not the type of people to ignore the smallest problem hidden in the smallest church mouse We hide our emotions, but I found out they're just live animals hiding in a glass house And I can't let them out or even let them change somehow But that's all I can tell you now 'Cause I'm not ready to tell you everything I want you to know But I'm ready to trust you, or at least I'm ready to let love show Because I spent the last few years chasing my desires And I found out I was just chasing my own demons When I found desire in you, you called my words excuses But I just thought of them as poorly stated reasons Simple execution of neglect and preparation for something hidden in a deeply rooted promise That I'll always speak my mind, but sometimes my mind will be mistaken 'Cause me and my friends, we're not the type of people to leave room for error But I make enough errors to leave an empty room in my heart And with no one to turn the lights on my heart lives in the dark And I will hide the light until you ask for it to ignite, cause the truth is bright, but hidden in plain sight Deep within the dark pulls of your eyes The deep secrets cold as ice, but sharp as a knife The feeling of real vibes hidden deep inside My dark feeling that I'm just depression's trophy wife A sight to exemplify surviving the night 'Cause me and my friends, we never get in trouble But we are a troubled bunch Hope lies within our potential deep within the rubble Hoping that light will touch A hypocritical statement of blatant placement of words That only have purpose if you strike a match and ignite them And there you go, we solved the problem for darkness but reinstated a purpose of hatred within the deep desires We develop to an envelope The cyclical deep desires of desiring deep connections to add depth to the thick skin of our emptiness Questioning, representing messages of necessary self fulfillment Some are satisfied with their instinct to survive Through the storm of darkness others call it selfishness But me and my friends we don't subscribe to the cloud of confusion found in questioning what turns the lights on No we never ask, 'cause me and my friends we see the light on and celebrate Regardless, but sometimes the light doesn't matter when we wear a mask So what is gained if this isn't me? It's like having lungs but no ability to breath I guess the light exposed the fact that acceptance became a dead end And it's the only conclusion I can see 'cause someday maybe the identity of me and my friends will just be me But with this mask it doesn't matter how bright the lights are 'cause I don't know who I am I don't know who I am unless it's me and my friends
