Just Enough (Revison of Mortality 2005)

Folder: 
2008

Don’t leave me here

Blind me

and shackle me to your side

Hold me down

don’t let me scratch

the scars until they bleed

Well maybe just a little

just enough to get me

through the day

Maybe if you held me

I wouldn’t look at all

Maybe if you held me

I’d stop wondering

why am I still here

Maybe I’d stop wondering

how I could have failed

at something so perfectly planned

everything just so

everything in its place

But you’re walking out the door

Oh God- I’ve been here before

Scratch my arms

and pray my wrists don’t bleed

Well maybe just a little

just enough to get me

out of here

Author's Notes/Comments:
