Silence, with no goodbyes

I'm at my wits end

And when the time comes
Not even a cigarette can save me then

If I asked mother
I'm afraid she'd tell me no

These tears are falling
I've no place to go

If I go to hell
For the sins I've committed
I don't think my debt
Will ever end, I admit it

She says her time isn't long
And if I were to hear
That she is gone
I will burst into tears

Loss I can't handle
Distance I can hardly bear

I have a knife in my pocket
And a death in my thoughts

I wonder if I'll even have a funeral
After all, what have they got?

I'm still alive
But how I'll die, I've planned

If someone could save me
From these shaking hands

Tell me again
How you cannot answer
A question so simple

I've been waiting forever

Did you mean it
When you said it?
Did you mean it
Like I did?

Are you at a loss for words
Because you'll never say it again?

I apologize sincerely
I don't deserve you
And you'll never read this
Will you?
