    Blisters bubbling up...

  • Creatures of the dark,
    Here to leave our mark...

    I get in his car and begin to cry asking myself...

  • You were here today and gone tomorrow,
    Thinking of you fills my heart with sorrow...

  • Feeling a blade slice through my wrist,
    A handful of pills in the other fist...
