Sherlock ran into the apartment with tears running down his face. He slammed the door and tore off his long, black trench-coat throwing it to the wood floor. He was just tired of disappointing people. Tired of having everyone think he's just a self, centered dick. He just didn't want to bother people anymore. He ran into his bedroom, slammed and locked the door. He turned on the radio and ran to his dresser. He tore open the top drawer and took out the first blade he saw. It was shiny,silver, and full of temptation. He closed the drawer and sat cross-legged on his bed.

I can hold my breath,

I can bite my tounge,

I can stay awake for days

If that's why you want,

Be your number one.

I can fake a smile,

I can force a laugh,

I can dance and play the part

If that's what you ask.

Give you all I am

Sherlock began to stop crying. He took the small yet deadly blade in his right hand and help it up to the the other wrist. She slowly pushed down pressure with the corner and hesitantly dragged it to the right, leaving a small cut. The cut slowly began leaking the dark red liquid and dropped down his arm on to his pants as he placed the blade about a centimeter under that cut and repeated the process. He began to cry again, thinking about how he pushes away everyone and how he is just an arrogant jerk. He felt useless.

I can do it, I can do it, I can do it

But I'm only human,

And I bleed when I fall down,

I'm only human,

And I crash and I break down,

Words on my head,

Knifes in my heart,

You build me up and then I fall apart,

Cause I'm only human

Sherlock kept cutting and didn't plan to stop anytime soon. He kept going, getting closer and closer to his vein. He just wanted it to be over. He wanted to prove he was human. He held the blade to his vein, pressed down, and moved it. It was over, he traded hands with the blade, and did the same thing to his other wrist. It was done, the great Sherlock Holmes, was slowly bleeding to death, at his own will, on his bed.

I can turn it on,

Be a good machine,

I can hold the weight if worlds

If that's what you need.

Be your everything.

I can do it, I can do it

I'll get through it.

But I'm only human,

And I bleed when I fall down,

I'm only human,

And I crash and I break down,

Words on my head,

Knifes in my heart,

You build me up and then I fall apart,

Cause I'm only human
