Only now my fears are here
do you start to look and peer
what is the point of lying low
it’ll get you in the end it’s sure to show

As I lay upon my bed I see my face its full of dread
i want to shout but no one will hear.
all this time you didn’t know how severe
how severe it was, to cause such pain.

Ill be here all alone
Waiting for someone to come and see
The pain running from my mind
deep down to my heart.
Where reality is set apart.

What will they do when I say im ok
Will they see the truth or buy the lie?
This is the time to try and see
Where is my life to lead.

Theses crucial days are running low fast
What will I see if it fly’s past?
All I know is im tightening the noose.
All my sorrow is about to be let loose.

Ill see you n the next life
I’m smiling now as I pick up the knife,
I run it slowly across my skin
Pushing harder and harder as the world spins.

Im now on the floor, my wrists screaming aloud,
Getting fainter and fainter, until finally, no more.
