My Imaginary Friend

Absorb me like sugar my imaginary friend. You'v got me wrapped around your finger. Evaporate my skin. So this time I will cry and never let it go. I sing that song at night but you will never know. Toss the lamp and rip the carpets but I still know Im caught in your net. I still hear you though the phone lines are dead. You left your touch sown in my skin like thread. So this time I will hide and pretend to let it go. I hate that your inside and I cant let it show. Burn the nightmares and scream on paper. But I'll have a good dream sooner or later. Filter out the sugar goodbye imaginary friend. I wont let my teardrops linger. Shed away my skin.
