Happiness is Just a Gash Away

Sitting here with a blade in my hand,
I think about you,
And I'm smiling at the thought
Of what I'm about to do.

Feeling this sudden rush
Of energy flowing through me,
I realise that there is nowhere else
I would rather be...

...Than right here on
My bathroom floor,
Knowing that, after this,
The pain will be no more..

...Knowing that
No matter what you say -
I know that happiness
Is just a gash away.

Now, just lying here,
The floor covered in red,
The final words I want to say,
Is that it was for you I bled.

And I now understand
That, come what may,
Happiness is just
A gash away.
