Just Kill Me Now
Just slit me know as I pray for mercy.
I go into war, without a chance.
I would rather die for my country,
Than let you kill me now.
You're holding me back from what I can be.
I'm trapped in your warfare as you ablaze my life.
You light up another cigarette,
As I pray for just one more breath.
You smoke and you smoke, until my lungs are as black as your heart.
I feel myself collapsing, as I grab out in pain,
Hoping to find your saving hands.
But you mock me, you shove me, you hold me down,
And know I ask, for you just to kill me now.
My life is unbearable, with you controlling me.
I'd rather die a thousand deaths,
Then let you destroy me.
I'd rather die from war, then have my life destroyed by my father.
I'm dieing now, I'm far too gone.
I beg you all just to remember this.
I am gone, this is true; but it isn't a bad thing.
For I want you all to remember,
That I died for you, so you can know how you influence my life.
The blood running down my wrist, the bullet pushing through my brain.
The pills churning my stomach until I can cry out my last tear.
As I scream out, "This tear is for you, for you were, are, and will always be my
birth, my life, and my death."
As I fall to the ground, without you there.
So Kill Me Now, so I will never have to go through this hell known as life.
If this is love, then let me die.
For your kiss, is the last thing that I,
I will ever feel...
