Sorry, My Dear

Have you heard the story of the guy

Who decided not to die

He figured living was just easier

Than falling really high

And if someone heard about it later, thought

Maybe see that is why, I'm enamored

With the thought of seeing angels in the sky

That are singing

And their singing, and saying

Everything's right, have you heard

They aren't, So

Maybe I will find a place to sleep

Just a comfortable place

To lay my head

Please, Shoot me in the face, but

First slowly smoke your cigarette that's laced

With fucking arsenic it makes, Just

Kill me in my sleep

Smother me with pillows, and kindness

Which I've never seen

Please slit my perfect throat

The knife that I gave you

When I told you I loved you in my home

Stab me in the back, and

Twist it with the anchor

Every single time I made you mad

Have you heard the story of the guy

Who decided not to die

He figured living was just easier

Than falling really high

And if someone heard about it later, maybe

They'd see that is why, I'm enamored

With the thought of seeing angels in the sky

In fact, their singing

And their singing, and singing

Everything's right, have you heard

They aren't

I will find

And I will find

Part of being alive is wishing that you weren't sometimes

And as your brain forces you to breathe

It let's you indulge in such reluctancies

But what's more amazing than that

Is you can do it and it won't fight back

Your brain will calmly cease to breathe

If I really wanna shoot it, or smash it into things

And If I don't feel better in the next 10 years

Then I'm sorry, my dear

So If I don't feel better in the next 10 years

Then I'm sorry, my dear

I'm okay, I'm okay I feel a little bit sick

But it feels like a cough, or a cold, or a flu

But the only medicine feels like a bullet in my chest

But

Tell me, have you heard the story of the guy

Who decided not to die

He figured living was just easier

Than falling really high

And if someone heard about it later, maybe

They'd see that is why, I'm enamored

With the thought of seeing angels in the sky

And I know

That you bleed my own

And if you go

If you
