I want time to stop, for everything to freeze.
As the wind softly blows, a cool, light breeze.

I want to lie in the dark beneath starry skies.
The small cry of a bird as an angel dies.

I want the bitter tears to run down my face.
And it burns my cheeks, like fire and lace.

I want the constant aching in my heart to disappear.
A sickly sensation, gripping me, fear.

I want the pain inside me all to fade away.
With each and every step, the passing day.

I want to hear the song of a whale when it swims away from the shore.
So it ain't just me crying silently from the inside anymore.

I want to wake up in the morning and see a red sky.
Who knew if you slit it open it would bleed bye-bye?

I want to sit down and shiver through the whole of the night.
The feeling of the devil as He passes, 'hold tight.'

I want to cut myself open and bleed till I die.
So the poison will flow out and breathe with a sigh.

I want a rope around my neck, to stop the cries.
To hide the horrific truths of my big fat lies.
