Poem/Lyrics.
Just a little push
Just a little shove
and I could induce dying.
Just a simple act
to tranquilize this pain
and it would cease all the crying.
Is it a leap of faith
Or have I just gone insane?
Gazing upon the wreck. Staring into the dark of nothingness
Forgive me for giving up and no longer trying.
I don’t need anyone
I just need to feel
But I cannot feel
I cannot explain
I cannot tame
I cannot breathe
I cannot believe
I cannot persevere
I cannot live here
Anymore
You said you wouldn’t let me fall, my voice who sees all beauty.
But you’re pushing me to the floor
walking away
Have you given up?
Have you lost all faith in me?
Why then should I bother to stay?
Please don’t abandon me
cause’ I need you in my mind.
In search of my rising bird
repeatedly shot down by a merciless thief;
Can you please stop hiding?
Just a clear cut pull
just a tear choked scream
and my soul could be flying.
Heavy breathing now
blood rushing through my veins
heart throbbing violently through my chest.
But I’m not afraid to die
just need you to tell me this is right
and I will pull the trigger.
You said you wouldn’t let me fall, my voice who is all strong.
But you’re pushing me to the floor
walking away
Have you given up?
Have you lost all faith in me?
Why then should I bother to stay?
Please don’t abandon me
Cause’ I need you in my mind.
Don’t you leave me here with her
I need you in my mind
Don’t you leave me here with them
I need you in my mind
Don’t you leave me here with it
I need you in my mind
Don’t you leave me here with this
I need you in my mind
(My voice of reason)
Tease the admirer of desperation laced in camouflaged destruction.
(Help me to see the light)
Hang the keeper of jaws wide open and brace you neck right in.
(Help me to change my mind)
Disturb the silence upon your innocence with greedy snatching claws of the beast.
(Reassure me that it gets better)
I can’t take this anymore.
(Remind me why I hold on)
I can’t fake this anymore.
(Remind me that I’m not forgotten and that I am strong)
All these devices amongst my grasp.
Whispering voices in my ear
hiss, “Do it before my eyes.”
I’ll soon be floating over me I fear.
