I need to clean my skin
Wash away my sin
Nails scratch on the surface
Of where their lips have been
I'm running out of happy pills
My body is shaking in chills
The day I was born wasn't worth it
My hands, they lack the will
The tub is teeming with water
So shameless, committing self man slaughter
It doesn't change too much
This day was destiny, a meant to be goner
I've tired this before
I was afraid, guilty feelings in my core
My strength fading, letting life out of my clutch
Stepping into the cleansing stings my sores
Sword beside me, all I'm missing is a knight
Water rims my throat, this time I'll get it right
Hydrogen peroxide and I are empty and free
My scars won't be saved, not tonight
Oh it hurts
I was so sure
I've never cut this deep in me
Color surrounds me in a red blur
I've made a mess
I don't care to stress
It'll be a while before anyone comes in
My body drains of my blood, My body's worth less
I went down the street, it can't be sewn
Instead of across the road
I take my last sip of the cheap bottled gin
Heavens waiting, I've already sold my soul
Sleep takes me
Breathe gently
Fades away
Can't get the hydrogen peroxide, I'm too weak
I must live like this, I'm not too strong
Though it won't last long
My love looks at me in dismay
We know I can't fix the wrong
I put my razor down
Red water rims my nose, might as well drown
I don't want to stay
Don't wanna be earth bound
So let me fly away
Heaven awaits
