Tonight's the Night ... [I die.]

by Unseen Exposure   Aug 21, 2004



... [I'm so unsure of everything right now, and I guess overwhelming thoughts are getting the best of me. I just wrote how I felt.]

Tonight's the night I take the knife
And push it way too deep,
Tonight's the night I crawl in bed,
And indulge myself in sleep,
Tonight's the night I take the pills,
And follow them down with liquor,
Tonight's the night my heart will stop,
As my body shakes and quivers,
Tonight's the night I take the rope,
And hang it from the ceiling,
Tonight's the night I make a jump,
And lose all bodily feeling,
Tonight's the night I overdose,
On anything that I come across,
Tonight's the night that I give in,
My battle has been lost,
Tonight's the night I load the gun,
And point it to my head,
Tonight's the night I say it all,
Everything that needs to be said,
Tonight's the night I will face death,
And suffer from its defeat,
Tonight's the night the world will know,
Depression had me beat,
Tonight's the night I make a fall,
A fall that takes no stand,
Tonight's the night that you will know,
Tonight.. You'll understand,
Tonight's the night I need you most,
The night that you don't care,
Tonight's the night a promise is broken,
A promise you'd always be there,
Tonight's the night I beat myself,
So much I will not breathe,
Tonight's the night I cause such suffering,
Tonight I won't believe,
Tonight's the night I cry only blood,
A type of blood that always bleeds,
Tonight's the night, I can feel it,
And there is only hate on need,
Tonight's the night that I let go,
And everything is exposed,
Tonight's the night I'm telling you,
Tonight my road will close,
Tonight's the night that I give up,
And sink to a place unknown,
Tonight's a night I can't take back,
My chance at life is blown,
Tonight's the night the world will see,
A not too pleasant sight,
Tonight's the night, my friends..
Tonight … is my last night.
