Deep in my darkest corners-
Is where this junkie will always live,
feeding on my insecurities-
Anything that I will give.

She hides behind the facade of my smile-
She sneaks, she prowls, she laughs.
And when things go all wrong for me-
She begs, she cajoles, she asks.

And I push her back into that corner-
where she hates so much to be,
Where she can only see from my eyes-
This silent, deadly part of me.

But when my heart is broken-
with my guard down and I'm weak.
She comes rushing right forward-
Yes it is her turn to speak.

And she soaks up all the pain for me-
Yes, she soothes it all away.
She tells me the lies I need to hear-
That everything will be ok.

Just this once she always says to me-
It will help make you forget.
Just this once...It's ok-
Just this once...and that's it...

just this once...
