Disclaimer - not my feelings
Alone in my bathroom I stare at my eyes
They are red and raw, no big surprise
If there is one thing I can never forgive
It is myself, for having never lived.
I get closer to my blotchy reflection
And realize I am nowhere near to perfection
The coldness of the mirror under my lips
Makes me aware of my frailties and slips
Why are you alone? Thinking of killing yourself?
I fall into a hard thing, a toilet paper shelf.
I wanna be be blonde, I wanna be keen.
I wanna be someone else; someone whose seen.
No one pays attention to me, I feel like a fake.
When I kill myself, will I finally be awake?
I want blood, guts, and delicious chocolate cake.
When I wake up in heaven, will I finally be awake?
