"Red Petals"

by Danielle   Jun 4, 2004


Red petals fall in the darkness
One by one they die
12 of them in a vase
I can hear them cry
I shred their beauty
In tiny pieces of lust
You came with roses in youre hand
I turned in disgust
The petals present my life
Its all falling apart
Youre taking it piece by piece
Breaking all my heart

I hate you with a passion
For hurting me the way you did
I told you not to break my heart
But you went right ahead and did it
When we were together
Everyone told me about
How you were psychotic
And hurt me some how
I didnt listen though
You blinded me with lies
My heart bleeds for you today
U didnt even say good-bye
The days we werent together
You said you needed time
For me to wait for that day
When u were in my life
You played me like a fool
Because that day never came
And I sit alone and stare in darkness
Nothing will be the same

Our song plays on the radio
A girl dedicated it to her guy
I cant take it anymore
Now I only wish to die
The only thing I want
The only thing I wish
Is that you see the pain you caused
The life you left at risk
Sitting in fear on the floor
The red petals all around
I take the final one
Let it fall to the ground
This is my time
TO end my life here
No more pain for me to feel
My heart has to heal
Standing high above my stairs
The rope hanging high
I take it around my neck
This is my good bye

The rope rings so tight
As I jump to my death
The petals still in my hand
As I take my final breath
