my vision is fading
red to black
black to red
petals of a rose drifting by
[don't ask me
i know nothing
don't ask me
i am nothing]
blink my eyes
push away the light
[no,
push away the dark]
grab the razor standing by
and put it to my wrist
[monday
i loved you
tuesday
i broke you
wednesday
i killed you
and today
i'm sorry]
press deep
but the metal is cold
[ice dripping
drip. drip. drip.
landing on your shirt]
quickly
pull the razor
{but i didn't have a razor
so i figured
i use the scissors instead}
the blood drips
[drip. drip. drip
landing on your shirt
leaving a tiny stain]
{i felt my stomach
and i knew exactly where to cut
i wanted to cut all the fat off my body}
blood
on the floor
blood
on the walls
blood
everywhere
[except in my veins]
[i'm NOT emo
don't call me that
i'm not crazy
don't tell me i am]
[monday
i loved you
tuesday
i broke you
wednesday
i killed you
and today
i'm sorry]
