Sunbeam

by Becky   Oct 15, 2004


All I Wanted To Do
Was Stop The Pain
I Had Nothing To Lose
And Nothing To Gain

Sitting In A Single Sunbeam
That Crept Through The Curtain
I Knew What I Had To Do
I Was Certain

I Had Thought About It For So Long
It Took Over My Mind
I Couldn't Think About Anything Else
There Was Nothing I Could Find

There Is Nothing To Keep Me Here Anymore
I'm Lost In My Own Soul
My Heart Is Split
And Black As Coal

I'm Not Sure Why I Was Still There
I Had Nothing That Would Keep Me
Everyone Just Took One Look
And Decided Who I Must Be

I Hear Their Words
I Wince At Their Coldness
All I See Is Happy People
Lost In Bliss

But I Was Always Different
No One Bothered To See
That Deep Inside This Tattooed Body
There Is So Much More To Me

They Took One Look At My Dark Clothes
And Decided That I Wouldn't Fit In
Every night I Prayed
That Something Would Save Me From This World Of Sin

But In My Cold Heart I Always Knew
That I Would End Up This Way
I Knew No One Would Stop Me
They Didn't Care Enough To Say

No One Cares That I Might Be Gone
They Wont Even Look
They'll Take My Life
And Close It Like A Book

So Here I Sit In The Single Sunbeam
And I Let A Single Tear Fall
As I Lift Up The Gun
And To Heaven I Crawl
