Suicide Lullabye

I look in the mirror and what do I see

The biggest loser in the world staring back at me

Tears of blood do stain my cheek

What once was strong is now so weak

 

Filled with pain, inside I’m dead

No one listens, the things I’ve said

Darkness it heals, it fills my soul

The beast within, does make me whole

 

Can\'t take the pain, it cuts too deep

You see the smile, my tearless weep

And on the day when blood doth spill

Will you forgive and love me still

 

The fire within all burned out

Hold knees to chest I scream and shout

Blackness surrounds and cold closes in

The silence recedes I welcome the din

 

The chaos the fury, confusion and pain

A maelstrom of feelings tumultuous rain

I\'m trapped in this storm with no end in sight

So ready to lay down and give up the fight

 

Anxiety, depression, whatever the name

A knife in the chest, it\'s all the same

The voices are screaming, their silence so loud

I pull up the sheets, my burial shroud

 

5 in the cylinder and 1 in the hole

It only takes one to reach its goal

It only takes one to achieve my goal

It only takes one to free my soul
