Hanging By A Thread

Hanging By A Thread

When I cry, I close my eyes
And every tear falls down my side
And I pray with all my might
I'll find enough hope to win this fight

When I cry, when I'm in pain
I think of all the mistakes I've made
Nothing can take this sad despair
Crying in the shadows, I sit and stare

All the salt inside my body
Ruins everyone I get close to
I fear I'm hanging by a thread
My hands are barely holding my head

I'm so tired of looking down
As the crimson blood drips on the floor
Trying to focus upon my feet
All these secrets that I must keep

Don't look at me, at what I've done
I've lost everything that I loved
I lost my soul, I lost my pride
I've drowned in tears even though I've tried

I guess I've lost, any hope
Of happiness in this tearful life
Maybe I will never find
A way to fix this broken mind

My life is hanging by a thread
For my head, it wants me dead
Just one snip and I'll be gone
I know I can't last here for long

Any comments would mean such a lot x
