72 Hour Watch

The knife was in my hand
The slits were in my wrist
Why oh why did they
Have to find me like this?

I should have hidden better
I should have thought it through
Anything to keep them from
Seeing the blood i drew

My fate was signed and sealed
Glorious death was in my mind
I was happy to finally be pealed
From this hell-ish bind

My life had been so bad
I just wanted it to end
Oh Lord, why wouldn't you let me have
This one, small blessed send?

I drown here in my misery
As i struggle against these chans and locks
Burning in my personal hell
Perishing on my 72 hour watch
