A needle in my vein
to make me sleep
a searing pain with no relief
a clouded mind and
I've been cut out of my clothes
You can't fight a battle
for a man flying a white flag
This sickness soon will leave
my body cold (my eyes retreat into my skull)
This sickness soon will leave
leave my body cold
Just let me go, just let me go, just let me go
scour the wreckage for a grain of hope
Just let me go, just let me go
or tie the noose tight in the rope
Insincere with soulless eyes
a serpent in a sheep's disguise
bathed in blood
with only scabs and scars to clothe
you can't feel a lover's touch
with a body numb
Burn regrets
breathe deep the smoke in
(to choke and gasp for air)
drink the fears
to numb the cowardice soul
calloused in cravings
shackled in shame
a shell of a person forgotten his name
your footprints leave no imprints
as you stagger towards the grave
Or tie the noose tight in the rope
