the pain stops hurting when you leave the world.

wouldn't it be easy
to tie a noose around your neck?
wouldn't it be simple
to watch your life crumble and wreck?

it would be so funny
to watch people scream and shout
they would pity themselves
but that's not what it's about

i would've done it to go
to just be free from life
it's so very easy
just the blade of a knife

you think it's uncommon
this urge, this desire
but within all hearts
burns this ice-cold fire

nightmares and lightning
there's none of that here
in this empty place
there's nothing called fear

they don't know what it is
so how can they fear it?
they can't feel it at all
they can't even hear it

it's relaxing, releasing,
no more bad days
all the troubling thoughts
are vanishing in a haze

my eyelids are heavy
blood, my wrists seep
there's no more noise in here
i can get a good, long sleep.
