Bullet

20 4 2
                                    

My legs are dangling off the edge
The bottom of the bottle is my only friend
I think I'll slit my wrist again
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone
My legs are dangling off the edge
A stomach full of pills didn't work again
I put a bullet in my head
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone to far
Yeah I'm gone again
I'll tell you how it ends
I'm sitting on the edge with my two best friends
One's a bottle of pills, one's a bottle of gin
I'm twenty stories yeah I'm up at the top
I polish off this bottle now it's pushing me off
Asphalt to me has never looked so soft
I think my momma found my letter
Now she's calling the cops
I gotta take this opportunity before I miss it
Cause now I hear the sirens and they're off in the distance
Believe me when I tell you that I've been persistent
Cause now I'm scarred more scarred than my wrist is
I've been trying to long with too dull of a knife
But tonight I made sure that I sharpened it twice
I never bought a suit before in my life
But when you're going to meet god man don't you wanna look nice?

So If I survive then I'll see you tomorrow
Yeah I'll see you tomorrow

My legs are dangling off the edge
The bottom of the bottle is my only friend
I think I'll slit my wrist again
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone
My legs are dangling off the edge
A stomach full of pills didn't work again
I put a bullet in my head
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone

We hit the sky, there goes the light
No more sun, why's it always night?
When can't sleep then you can't dream
And if you can't dream well what's life mean?
We feel a little pity but don't emphasize
The old are getting older watch a young man die
A mother and a son and someone you know
Smile at each other and realize you don't
You don't know what happened to that kid you raised
What happened to the father who swore he'd stay?
I didn't know cause you didn't say
Now mama feels guilt yeah mama feels pain
When you were young you never thought you'd die
Found that you could but too scared to try
Looked in the mirror and you said goodbye
Climbed to the roof to see if you could fly

So if I survive then I'll see you tomorrow
Yeah I'll see you tomorrow

My legs are dangling off the edge
The bottom of the bottle is my only friend
I think I'll slit my wrist again
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone
My legs are dangling off the edge
A stomach full of pills didn't work again
I put a bullet in my head
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone

I wish that I could fly
Way up in the sky
Like a bird so high
Oh I might just try
I wish that I could fly
Way up in the sky
Like a bird so high
Oh I might just try
Oh I might just try
