Mom, Dad, Me.

by Dark   Dec 5, 2005


Hes sitting in his bedroom, his life was just a lie
he couldn't take it anymore, begged god to let him die.
He shrugged at his wish, he figured god would never help.
If god didn't wanna do it, then he decided to do it himself.
He went into his pocket, pulled out his fathers knife
said "Hey dad look, I'm really gonna end my life.
Isn't that what you wanted? I mean, you said I'm better of dead.
Or was it one of your stupid jokes, those dumb ass things you said.
You're not worth thinking about, you left me when I was five.
Right along with mom, you're stupid ass went and died.
Mom don't think this means you're better, you raised me worst than ever.
The only thing you ever told me, is that I'll be a loser forever.
All those nights I caught you drunk, I actually looked up to you
I wanted to be an adult like you, no one can tell you what to do.
I guess you let that go to your head, that night you killed yourself
you left me mom, it wasn't right, I was 10 and had to fend for myself.
Those lonely nights inside my room, my parents left me cold
I tried to make it on my own, but then the house was sold.
I was put inside a foster home, from the looks no one wanted me.
I was different from what they said, stayed like that till 17
after years of living on the streets, I finally got on my feet.
I fought for what I wanted, my life began at 23.
I got a job, I found a girl, I bought a house, I lived right.
Then as it seemed, Fate took it away, the heartbreak of my life.
Here I stand, this knife in my hand, my final minutes await
I'm having a second thought, but really it's too late.
Well mom and dad, from the looks, suicide runs in the genes.
Mom went and overdosed, dad drank his death it seems.
I'll add a new page in our book, I'll use this knife to take it away.
I guess I'm alone in death, until I see y'all in hell one day.
