"Friends"

oh, friend of mine, where have you gone?
you knew from the start-
i hurt myself on the outside
trying to kill the demons that
reside on the inside

you watched me sink between my own fingertips
and burst into flames
you watched me get consumed by my own mind
and fall through time

so, when i don't wake up one morning
and I'm colder than a winters wind
don't you dare cry
don't act like you never saw it coming
because you never even tried
never tried to save me

don't act as if you cherished me-
you only thought my life was precious because it ended
oh, friend of mine, where have you gone?
why didn't you save what was left of me?
