For days or weeks,
Get out of this place.
Away from the freaks.
Take a handful of pills
And swallow them down.
I know what you think,
I know that you'd frown.
I want to escape,
Let it all drift away.
Yet I want to wake up,
Just some other day.
To sleep for 3 days
Would sure mean a lot
It's time that I need,
It's time that I got.
I won't be real stupid
I won't OD here and die.
I just need a break
I can no longer cry.
My thoughts are not good
They're hard for me to take.
So I won't shut my eyes
Unless I'm sure I won't wake.
Thoughts about suicide,
about cutting my wrist.
Fear of whats to come,
That ongoing list.
Take a bit of a nap
To figure this out
It's what I want,
It's my only route.
Take a handful of pills
And swallow them down.
I know what you think,
I know that you;d frown.
