A Cry For Help

The salt of tears, the iron of blood

The sound of cries, the lifeless thud

I bite my tongue and leave unsaid

The words that swirl inside my head


I'm chasing the impossible

I bet you find it comical

Aren't you so proud of what you've done?

Applause, applause, I guess you've won


But as more and more hours pass

I still feel like I may collapse

My mind is broke, my last red note,

I tie the rope and face the facts


The salt of tears, the iron of blood

The sound of cries, the lifeless thud

I bit my tongue and left behind

The words you said that took my life
