R.I.P.

I heard the words
That I feared
I want to lose touch
With reality
I’ve lost a chance
I’ve lost so much time
I need to lose touch
With reality

I’ve lost a friend
Never had a lover
Just pain and suffering
I dance with psychosis
And flirt with suicide
So I might
Finally rest in peace

I need a moment
To gather myself
Before I lose touch 
With sanity
I’m lost in my mind
I’m trapped in transition
I need to lose touch
With sanity

I’ve lost a friend
Never had a lover
Just pain and suffering
I dance with psychosis
And flirt with suicide
So I might
Finally rest in peace

I’m so scared
That I’m alone
In this world
I’m so afraid
That I’ll die
By my self
I wish to hold you
Wish to tell you how I feel
Cause you won’t let me
Rest in peace

I’ve lost a friend
Never had a lover
Just pain and suffering
I dance with psychosis
And flirt with suicide
So I might
Finally rest in peace
I’ve lost a friend
Never had a lover
Just pain and suffering
I dance with psychosis
And flirt with suicide
So I might
Finally rest in peace
