Dear Razor

Dear Razor,

You've been my only friend
As the days have passed me by
But now I have one last job for you
Will you please just help me die?

I'll place your cool, sharp edge
Upon my pale, scarred wrist
I swear it's the best thing for me
If you just help me with this

You're my only friend remaining
The only one that's there
You help me solve my problems
When life's not playing fair

I know I'm asking a lot from you
But you know it's the only way
To help me not feel sadness
And to throw the pain away

Thank you, Razor, for agreeing
I knew that you'd say yes
Goodbye, Razor, my friend
You know it's for the best
