Knives laid down upon the table

The silver glittering in the light

Noose slung over the chair

Pistol clipped to your side

You sigh at the sight

As you look at each method

Biting your lip your eyes go teary

You place a hand to your forehead

Tears pour down your face

And you break out in a cold sweat

Throwing your face in your hands

You cry out in defeat

Blood pours down your arm

As you slice your wrist

Fondling the pistol

You try to think of a way out

Memories seize your mind

And the decision gets made

Unclipping it from your belt

You pull back the trigger

Turn off the safety

And close your eyes

You raise it slowly to your temple

Pulling back the trigger more

You finally let it go

The sound echoes

It echoes through the halls

And shakes the foundation

Blood pools around your body

And it drips down the wall

There was nothing left, no other way

To escape this fate
