Jest
Jest
Show me your creation,
Written down in black ink.
Let me see your darkest thoughts;
I need a place to sink.
I want a place to disappear;
There really is no escape.
If I cannot have somebody to love,
Then I will no longer fight my fate.
Love is out there somewhere to find.
All I have to do is look with open eyes,
But I am blind to anybody who would be nice,
Because of the tears I have cried, so many times.
So cut me with your truthfulness,
I want this pain to hurt.
I am no longer playing just for jest.
Put me six feet in the dirt.
