Crashing Again

Hold me close don't go away I need someone who wants to stay Mary Mary quite contrary how does your garden grow With silver bells and pretty shells and gravestones all in rows Empty words spilling out Drowning you in my tears Choking you so you can't scream and shout Asphixiating on my fears. Dearly beloved are you even real? I can't remember anything When I touch you I don't know what I feel Except this torture still lingering. I'm that girl that holds on tight clinging to your arms and stealing all the light I can't take this place but I can't leave But escape is something I can't conceive. Insanity is rising inside Putting me in line Forcing me back to burn and hide Drinking my pain like wine Mary Mary quite contrary come to watch me cry And Mary Mary so contrary comes to help me die.
