'Til it Bleeds

Folder: 
death

Could you understand

If I told you how it hurts

To be in this hell

Tortured by words?



All around me

People dying

People crying

People lying down their lives

Cutting

And Thrashing

And screaming

And crying

And pleading

'Til it Bleeds.



Can't they see

That what they're doing

Hurts us more than anything?

Thinking what they do

Only affects them

But we all lose

We all have to choose

Should we cut

And thrash

And scream

And cry

And plead

Only to let it bleed.

All around me

people dying

People crying

People Lying down their lives

Cutting

And thrashing

And screaming

And crying

And pleading

'Til it bleeds.



But why,

Why should we have to go through this

The weak get to die

The strong get to lose

Only because

We let it bleed too long.



All around me

People dying

People crying

People lying down their lives

Cutting

And Thrashing

And screaming

And crying

And pleading

'Til it Bleeds.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Suicide Hurts others more than anyone will ever know. It's a selfish, hateful, desperate act done in vain. I have lost a lot of friends to it as well  and this is just a few of my thoughts on the matter...notice, I've totally changed my view on it.

thats so true. i no b4 ive thought about suicide though i no ill never do it because im ok now. but u think its the easy way out but how many ppl around u will get hurt, think theyve done something wrong. gaaa the mind works in mysterious ways i guess.
