All around me there are pretty faces
And families and friends and sparkling lights...
Past the point of coping,
Beyond trying to survive...
I dance with the knife,
Cutting patterns and swirls...
Devil, devil,
Hear my cries...
Fading slowly, drifting away,
Going numb, losing feeling inside...
For a moment the pain fades away.
I laugh, I smile, I talk and I play...
Frozen tears on empty faces,
When no-one goes to forgotten places...
I just wanted to say
Goodbye to my innocence...
Verse 1: Promise me youll never see me cry...
Promise me youll look the other way...
Hang me down
From the gallows of heaven...
Hush little baby,
Close your eyes...
I cant do it.
I cant go on...
