Wish I was to dead to cry
My self-affliction fades.
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be.
I'll keep slipping farther,
but once I hold on,
I won't let go til it bleeds.
Wish I was to dead to care,
If indeed I can at all.
Never had a voice to protest,
so you fed me shit to digest.
I wish I had a reason,
my flaws are open season.
For this I gave up trying..
One good turn deserves my dying.
And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be.
I'll keep slipping farther.
But once I hold on,
I won't let go til it bleeds.
Wish I'd died instead of lived,
a zombie hides my face.
A shell forgotten with it's memories
Diaries left with cryptic entries,
and you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be (here)
I'll keep slipping farther,
and once I hold on...
I'll never live down my deceit.
