Emily

What’s the matter, Emily

Are you afraid of the dark

Isn’t this familiar, Emily?

I think I’ve been where you are

It’s a long and lonely road

And there’s nowhere to run

You’re surrounded by the consequences

Of the one you have become

What’s the matter, Emily

Why the hell are you calling me

You’re the one who left me

Hangin’ on, all alone

When I needed somebody

You wouldn’t pick up the phone

You’re the one who stood idle

As I was forced to walk away

Never once did I hear, “I’m sorry,”

Or ever was I asked to stay

Now the shoe is on the other foot

And you’re crying out for help

The demons dance and laugh and sing

As they’re putting you through hell

What’s the matter Emily

Are you beginning to see

The roles are now reversed

And you’re calling out to me

What’s the matter, Emily

Are you surprised at what you see?

You’re the one who left me

Hangin’ on, all alone

When I needed somebody

You wouldn’t pick up the phone

You’re the one who stood idle

As I was forced to walk away

Never once did I hear, “I’m sorry,”

Or ever was I asked to stay

I don’t feel like being the bigger man

As far as our friendship goes…

Let this fucker burn…

You’re the one who left me

Hangin’ on, all alone

When I needed somebody

You wouldn’t pick up the phone

You’re the one who stood idle

As I was forced to walk away

Never once did I hear, “I’m sorry,”

Or ever was I asked to stay

What’s the matter, Emily?

Are you afraid of the dark?
