Now I lay me down to sleep
trying to muffle my helpless weep
My razor kisses my wrist goodnight
praying I don't see morning light
If I should die before I wake
leave me lying in my bloody lake
Now I lay me down to sleep
down my arm the razor creeps
the pain that I'm feeling is such a delight
spreads through my body such an excite
If I should die before I wake
you will know I'm not a fake
Now I lay me down to sleep
dripping blood from cuts too deep
Nothing guides me through the night
because the darkness blurs my sight
If I should die before I wake
I'll leave behind this pain and hate
