Do I stay


Water running down my face, as today i decide my fate

going or stayin wouldn't even matter

Would it?

Theres no hope anymore

Im in the darkness of my mind, do it

I hear....It will make you feel better.

My hand shakes as the cold iron

touch the weariness of my skin

I tilt my head back hoping for pleasure, but

what i feel inside it seemed to not measure.

Theres nothing left to do, no

one to turn to.

Is this my last resort

Do I stay?
