Sometimes I close my eyes
And breathe in deeply
If I think hard enough, maybe I'll finally be free
My remedy lies heavy on fingertips
A shiny silver blade
If I let go of myself, maybe all of this will fade
Strange thoughts won't plague my brain
And my hands wouldn't itch
My legs wouldn't shake
My shoulders wouldn't quake
The answer is on my fingertips
A shiny silver blade
I just need to plunge it in
Deep into my skin
And stand still as it gleams
With an evil red eye
Maybe then I wouldn't need to lie
And tell people I'm okay
Smiling through the pain, already knowing I've gone insane
