Can You?

by ElegantlyWasted   Nov 15, 2004


Can you scratch me harder
See if i still feel
I just can't seem to stay awake
It's like nothing is even real

Can you yell a little louder
Its like i can't hear
I'm screaming my lungs out
But no one seems to care

Can you cut a little deeper
Let me feel the sting
I want to see blood trickling
Like a river down my skin

Can you hug a little tighter
I can't sense your touch
I want to say I Love You
And that i miss you so much

Can you talk a bit more often
Your voice it's wearing out
I keep forgetting what it sounds like
Its such a quiet shout

Can you please come back to me
Make me want to live
I want to leave this horrid place
I've nothing left to give

Can you at least pretend
Try to make me feel alive
I don't want to believe it yet
That it's me thats already died
