You look at me like I've lost my mind,
But can you lose something,
That was never there to find?
I can feel myself slipping away,
And from where I hear a voice,
Begging me to stay.
But if I chose not to go.
Will you hold me up
When my mind goes solo.
I can't breathe with all this air suffocating me.
Do you hear what I mean?
Or do I speak what you say?
You close your eyes and I'm no longer there.
This life is so brief,
Do I take the time to care?
Will you forget me when I'm gone for good.
Will your remember my life?
Or for what I stood?
If I slash my wrists,
Will you cry?
Or think of it as just another goodbye?
If I swallow ten or twenty more pills then I should,
Would you hold me as I died?
Or leave me to die alone, like I could?
God be gentle on this confused soul of mine.
All I need is your love
And so much more time.
