Wrap the flag around your wrist Feel the metal on your leg You know.. It's probably not too late to stop Press the pedal Hear it purr Grip the metal The weight much heavier then before Squeeze tight and shield your eyes from the flashing light You can't remember why you are there Feel the burning while you fall No one comes to your aid No one claims that they saw Just a mess to clean up is you Existence is gone and nothing is you Unheard forgotten and gone is you Only one who cries at night Carries your locket Sees your face When there is no light "Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it." |

It is sad and the writing is stark. You just put it out there without a lot of words to wade through. A |
