My fate
If not from my own hand
Then whose
If not from my own hand
Then
Why did they not hold out that hand
And help
And if from my own
Why did I not take it
To my own neck
Wrap it around
And squeeze
My fate
If not from my own hand
Then whose
If not from my own hand
Then
Why did they not hold out that hand
And help
And if from my own
Why did I not take it
To my own neck
Wrap it around
And squeeze
Maybe it’s because I wasn’t the first
Maybe it’s because I wasn’t committed enough
Maybe it’s because in the grand scheme of things it didn’t seem so serious
Just one night
Doesn’t seem so bad
Just one night
Doesn’t change someone’s life
If there was a permanent reminded
Some open wounds, some scars, some physical after effects
It wouldn’t be treated as normal
But no
We went home
And life went on as always
The only difference being
That I slept
And I slept
And I slept
Can I ask you a question?
Are you afraid of the ways
The world will move on
Without you?
No
Not I
I long for the days in which
The world remains
Unchanged
When I finally die
Days seem endless
Nights never long enough
Mistakes climb higher
And topple me to the ground
Why did I do this?
Regret was never so instant
Blink, blink, blink and I’ll miss it
It will be gone
But no, no
Its still here
Blink, blink, blink and I’ll wake up
And return to reality
But no, no
I cannot hide from this
You see me
You see me
And I,
I see you
Hold me tight please
Let me go I need
Up
Up don’t
Wrap me up please
Leave me alone I need
Free
Free don’t
Leave me
Please
Peel back
Show me
Beauty
In
Pain
Peel back
Ruby red
Red shines
Beautiful
Beautiful
Drip
Eternal bliss awaits
Those who let fate run its course
Is eternal bliss for me?
All I want is the nothingness after death
How unfortunate is it, then
That fate has wrapped itself around me
So that after death
All I get
Is eternal bliss
Let’s imagine
Two things
First
A life worth living
Second
A life godforsaken
How is it
That both can be true at once?
Remember with me
The life that I’ve lived
The ups and downs
The highs and lows
The numbness in between the light
The storm
Surely
I will miss
That heartbreaking life
Surely
I must want
That heartbreaking living
Surely
I can’t
Let go of that
heartbroken
heart
The ability to act
When filled with fear
Shows the heart
courageous
But
My fear holds me back
From doing what I want
It’s the pain, the ache, the unknown
Why am I so scared
When it’s all I dream of
Why am I a coward
When I want the courage
So desperately
So desolately
Please, courageous heart
Don’t fail me
