My anger used to be my shield
now betrayal has sent out a death bringing call
a call to which i must yield
a call which shall mark this lost souls downfall

the knifes handle is my only hug
i ball my hand and make a fist
A deep breathe i take and my shoulders shrug
i close my eyes and place the blade to my wrist

a gasp is breathed a look of shock is taken
The blade to the floor is thrown
I knew my death would be delayed and foresaken
I better life if only of it i had known

I pick up the knife again with a shaking hand
and stare at the clean unblemished blade in anger
i stare knowing i lost my mind and was unmanned
i throw the blade away & walk away wishing not to linger


the guns barrel is my only truly loving kiss
a eye is wiped a sob brings a silent anguished tear
My eyes are closed witha whisper of i can do this
a finger on the trigger of death i do not fear

I breathe deep and cry out meakly
the barrel breaks its loving kiss
i fall to my knees and breath out weakly
i feel despaired wishing i could have done this

i cock the gun and take the unused unmarked bullet
the gun i throw away and take my reminder of defeat
again i cry silently asking myself why i couldnt do it
I walk away the gravel crying with me from under my feet

you watched me bleed you watched me die you watched me not even a bat of your eye
