He Picked Rock

The buzzards ate that day
how could I've know
paper was your play
you did it every day

The stories were read
but now you are dead
silence breaks the window
and I bleed, please hear my plead

The scissors they cut
Bye bye, I'm not that tough

Hi there Raw, sorry haven't been around last few days, if you ever need to talk I am here, self harm is never good, no mater your feelings, ignore the negative and remember life is beautiful!
