Take my pain away

I tried it once before

I just wanted to get away.

I went too far I think

Now I want to go back

But I've already lost my way


My blood is on the ground

Followedby the pain,

What am I to do

How do I cover the stain?


Some blood is still inside me

Flowing through my veins

What if it suddenly stops?

What will happen to my heart?


My heart is still beating

How much longer till it stops

I am here you see

But soon I might be gone


Take the blade away from me

It's in my hand it's in my head

Just like you took my heart away

While I was learning how to love


Don't offer me a cigarette

I deserve to take a breath

The pain is still here

It's stronger than yesterday

I don't think I can live with it

Try to take my pain away

"You're strong" I once said to myself 

But now I know it was a lie

Let me take a breath then look me in the eye

And tell me that everything will be alright


You gave me the heroin

the needle is too deep in my skin

now I cannot breathe

What the hell is happening?


Kill me, end my suffering

That way I'll know you're on my side

I can't even take a breath

But don't you save me now

now when I've begun tolike the pain.

Please don't take my pain away.
