The Lesson

I'm twisting I'm screaming
then somehow I'm dead
my body is so numb
and then I wake up out of bed

I go through the days
looking like it is my last
I show no hope for the future
because of pain from my past

I go home and sit
crying on my bed
why am I still alive
when I should already be dead

now somehow or another
in my head there's a sharp knife
I didn't think about what I was doing
I just wanted to escape this life

I'm twisting I'm screaming
then somehow I'm dead
my body is so numb
as I die on my bed

by the time someone got there
to save my life
it was too late
they were out of time

so here's the lesson
don't ignore your past
deal with the memories one by one
or they will be your last
