Hunker down and pretend that it's all just a bad dream Inside my head the voices shout and proceed to scream One stands out among them all, encouraging sweet voice Soothing me with the knife, telling me I have a choice If I tried to explain this to you, you might say I'm the drama queen Wanting people's attention, why shouldn't I? I've never been seen But that's not what I'm after, I want your comfort and your care How can I make you understand my pain and my terrible fear? Silent now, an echoing sound, deafing inside my ears Drown in sorrow, drown in despair, drown in my own miserable tears Gasp for breath, my heart beats uncontrollably, as I try to breathe All the while seeing shadows, and trying so hard to keep listening Look around, see you there, your wrists matching mine Repeat to myself that you aren't real, a figment made up in my mind Calm myself, catch my breath and close my eyes again As my bones snap, I lower myself into this torment I call my friend
