Let Me Be

Let me be your secret,
I promise not to tell.
Let me be your secret
The one you know so well

Let me be your promise
The one your going to commit
Let me be your promise
The one you won't forget

Let me be your lie
The one you hate to say
Let me be your lie
Eating at you each and every day.

Let me be your Shadow
The one you try to escape
Let me be your Shadow
To see the mistakes you make.

Let me be your mind
To give you the help you sought
Let me be your mind
To consume your every thought.

Let me be your knife
To draw blood from your skin
Let me be your knife
To put the cutting to an end.

Let me be your pills
The ones you take each day
Let me be your pills
To stop the pain every way.

Let me be your everything
The one that you despise
Let me be your everything
Including all the lies.

Let me be your life
To keep you from dying
Let me be your life
So you will keep trying.
