Sliver From The Sun

Wrists bound from temptation
Whispers sweetly in the wind
"She'll never make it"
Wanting to prove them wrong
But the beating in my chest has me pinned
As temptation plays me
Yet another song
The tune of a bloody binge...

Far from my silver lining
Though a sliver from the sun
This metal I hate
Though in my life number one
I've always had a death date
Might as well pull the trigger on this gun...

Push it through my flesh
The most beautiful color
Gaping wide and fresh
Watching the sink fill
With nothing but red
Makes me feel light
Hush the voices in my head
Satisfies my hunger
My anxiety fed...

Slicing through my flesh
Too deep to care
I don't want death
But deeper I dare
I play my bloody violin
The truth is my weapon
Is almost next to kin
Oh we are such the pair...

Wanting only peace
Though my hope was for something less gory
I just want the burdens to finally cease
This is far from my story
But a partially big crease
Though in my heart I know
This will tear me apart
Ripping it piece to piece...

This is my pill
That takes away my pain
I can't help but smile
Watching the clouds part
Momentarily halting this rain
Leaving its mark on my heart
I have nothing left to gain
Oh another blood spill
Though everyone can see

Eventually my beloved razor blade
With me will only kill...
