Sanity's Farewell



dont leave me behind,dont let me fall

yet you sit and laugh,in the wake of it all

you pretend to be sad,you pertend to cry

whenever i say that i want to die

you want it to happen,you wish it would

you'd probably do it yourself if you could

a razor to the wrist,a bullet to the dome

would rid any thought of a broken home

a noose around the neck,pills down the throat

the only way you can think to cope

a roof to jump off,a ground to hit

a chemical to drink,a throat to slit

cut the vain,watch the blood drip

eyesight fades,into a coma ill slip

dont cry for me,dont shed a tear

for i have a smile on my neck,from ear to ear

the problems i have i can never tell

cant make it worse,my lifes shot to hell

the casket is closing,any last words?

to think you'll say those 3 is absurd

thanks to the razor,death is exact

this is sanity's farewell because im not coming back
