These Aren’t My Last Words A pain dwells deep inside me As you run through the door Heading for a corner Collapsing on the floor Though I attempt to comfort you You push me far away I try to shrug the feeling off This happens every day You wrap yourself in darkness And drown yourself in vain You wonder why you can’t just die It’s making you insane You force me not to dry your tears But I’ll still feel your pain I understand your heartbreak Believe me, I’ve been there I know what it’s like to love a guy And know he didn’t care Like you, I’m not accepted I don’t have a lot of friends But you don’t see me saying “That’s why my life should end,” I can’t say you’re a weakling I can’t say that you’re strong I only pray that you’ll see today That what you’re attempting is wrong If you murder your precious body You’ll take my soul along I won’t say “There are other guys” Because I still want mine It’s like a strong desire to drink A glass of forbidden wine I’m not going to stop your crying I’m still damp with my own I know what it’s like to be nothing I’ve already been alone But I’ll be your ray of sunlight And shine through your shadow of doubt I’ll stand by your side when you try to hide I won’t let you lock me out And if you let me, I’ll show you What life is all about I’ve had nightmares of your death It’s only a matter of time Before with the blood from your slit wrist You write your final rhyme But I won’t let you say goodbye These visions can’t come true Before you think of killing yourself Remember, it’s killing me too |
