waking up to armageddon again today
writhing alone in the dark, in the disease
even if i cared i couldn't contend anyway
with the cold barrel pressed against my temple
i know that i am not worthy
i will just wander in the desert
until i can't take it anymore
and then you all can bury me how you see fit
sometimes i almost feel okay but it gets bad at night
when i'm in the company of the me who hates myself
sometimes i almost want to get better but then i realize
that the battle is already lost
i know that my hands are dirty
the guilt will do wonders for my soul
my chest is burning and i can't stop shaking
please let me turn to ash and end the pain
someone is in my head and they're no friend of mine
pacing back and forth between bliss and hopelessness
is this a part of me or an intruder in my mind
the stranger speaks and his words begin to infect
the sun beats down oppressively
to everyone else its a beautiful day
this feels like the last breath i will ever take
i hope that soon it starts to rain
i hope that no one comes to my rescue this time
the sky is pouring down shame
i wish that you didn't love me like you do
this would be so much easier on you
