Suicide Game

They call me names 
and play their games
But they can't feel my pain
Of the razor I use to make my life a little smaller

They say that I'm worthless
That I'm just another name 
In their suicide game

I'm not the first 
And I won't be the last
To cry at night
And pretend that I'm alright

I cut my wrists 
using that small blade
And I think I'm loosing 
their suicide game

One more round and
I'm down for the count
I can see the end
Just around the bend

So I played
And I played well
But it was all in vain
Because I lost their suicide game
