Lyrics
The Word Suicide
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The word suicide is irresponsible
Still you offered to buy me a gun
What's so hard about sympathy
Love is a lonely room
When out on the edge
There's just two directions
And somebody has to lose
I should know better than to use words
Like never and hate
Love is a lonely room
This is no way to live
And this is no way to die
Who in the hell's life is this
I'm living anyway
Love is a lonely room
