It's Over
Dark skies filled up thick with rain
Chilly days that awaken the pain
Salty droplets flowing down my face
My heart beating at an abnormal pace
Screams start to fill up my head
I'm to do something everyone will dread
Should I take the gun,the blade or the rope
Society has crushed everything including my hope
Filling the tub up to the brim
Why did life have to cost a limb
First its the thighs then my ankles
Then my wrists and I massage my temples
I stagger to the bath and lay in the water
All I can hear in my head is everyone's laughter
Slowly I loose consciousness and I begin to float
Above the water my body rises as though I'm a boat
Sudden darkness takes in my mind
Something not strange to find
I then exhale my last earthly breath
Well done society now I've met my death
