A Sacrifice

I'm living in the color i dress in
My bedroom walls are painted red
I lay on the floor with cuts to the wrists
Swallowed visions of my past and they flow to my head
What I've done makes me cry in regret
I force it in the back of my mind
Losing all of my life's work
I decline heaven's facts told to me
Keeping me from leaving my pain
I am full of blood and pale all over
My dying body is slowly fading
Please comfort me closely to see
I have yet time before I die
You can save me if you want
My heart is sacrificed for death
Kill me from my joy of home
Sadly I don't know who I am
I'm upside down with my crucifixion on the wall
