Depart
Depart
I’m afraid to loose you but I have to face it.
Get rid of you, so you cant spread and infect other places
and I loose them to and I’ve thought this through.
Like rain soaked shoes, my pillow case soaked through.
Not even voodoo can undo what will soon be my view.
My reflection with no boobs, self confidence issues.
What I really need right now is this in my rear view.
I don’t want to hold a grudge with god above cuz of you.
For this bullet I can’t dodge having my breasts cut off.
For this sadness in my heart because we have to depart.
For the vision without you I can’t unsee cause it’s true.
You’ve been invaded by cancer and you must be removed.
They say it’s for my health and when genetic tests are read.
They will have to take you both, any alternative’s dead.
Depression is alive and it’s invading my head.
So I’ll keep my negativity to myself instead.
