Goodbye

Oh my dear
Big sharp knife
Slit my throat
Take my life

Take my hunger
Dry my eyes
Load the gun
Say quick goodbyes

Take the blade
Cut my wrist
Feel the pain
Tighten my fist

Lights fade
Time flys by
Get the rope
Frantically tie

Get a chair
Place it right
Once you jump
Don't try to fight

Seeing your life
Flashing fast
You remember everything
In your horrible past

The flashing stops
Everything's black
I suddenly realize,
There's no going back
