Let me go

Each red line across my wrist
a signature of my fate
a death I slowly die
a death you bestow upon me
a death you bestow upon me

do you know what youve done?
oh Im sure you do

And oh Im sure you feel it too
though Im not sure that youre willing to do anything about it

talk again we shall never
feel your arms around me I shall never
feel your touch I shall never

hear you tell me how much you love me

I shall never hear again

again
love
a word so dysfunctional
I shall never understand
because it means
so little to some
but everything to others

I was sure it meant something to you
as I was sure I meant something to you

more to you than one thing could change

but again I was wrong
I meant nothing more to you
than a few words afterschool

nothing more
nothing more

life
blends together
in these red lines
bleeding restlessly across my arm
and I watch the blood flow
writing words
oh words
the words which have killed me
once too many times
words

the words
meaningless to anyone but me
yet mean so much
enough to end it all;

a computer screen
a hundred words
a life
a lie
a drink
a promise
a feeling
an emotion
a goodbye
a lack of caring any more

my life
my dream
what are they?
I have forgotten it all

please dont remind me
it will only make it harder

please
just let me go
