So many voices I have heard,

Painful screaming in my head.

Crucified for wanting to live,

Vilified a lust to join the dead.

I wish for once before you speak,

Take the time to realize…

You really think I’m fucking weak?

Try seeing the world through my eyes!

Open up and take it all in,

Bleeding in the desert sand…

A life you took for their freedom

Still your fellow fucking man!

Now you swim within a bottle,

It never really worked for me…

A dozen pills, punch the throttle,

Close your eyes, your blood flows free…

You’re doing fine, take a break,

The nightmare has only started…

Karen begs you to stay awake,

Don’t leave her broken hearted…

Sleep takes you, chemical dreams

Never silence her panicked screams…

Glass explosion, the stinging pain,

Sickening splash of a best friend’s brain…

Your hair and face, dripping death,

His last thought on your fucking breath…

I understand, you’ve been through hell…

I’m not your problem, anyway…

This was but a little smell

A tiny whiff, my mind’s decay…

Just remember what you’ve seen,

As you run from my door…

Not a dog but a human being

Is what you left on the floor…

I meant to give you everything

You had been dreaming of,

And all I ever really needed

Was a little bit of your love…

Just a little bit

Of your

Love.
