Dear Me

Dear me, don't rely on what you see
All the blacks and whites dissolve into the gray
Dear me, there are monsters in the trees
And you won't notice them until they're in the way
And you should be ready
To fight them down
Cause no one will be there
To help you out
And no one will see
When you begin to doubt
And you hide
Hide
Hide away

Dear me, seems you'll lose along the way
Simple truths you found so comforting before
Dear me, all the love you thought was free
It will cost much more than what you can afford
And you won't be ready
You'll fight them down
And no one will be there
To pull you out
And when nothing is left
You forget what it's about
And you hide
Hide
Hide away

So I'm writing you this letter
To warn you now
Before you get your hopes up
Before they fall back down
You don't have to worry
And you don't need to...

Hide
Hide
Hide away

Dear me, you should know that you can't see
Just how good that it will be, in the end
