I'm sick of coming to a stop,
letting everything hold me back.
My screaming inner cop,
wont give me any slack

Even when I break the law
nobody seems to care.
And i cry, my lungs so raw,
stripping myself bare.

With only my heart to hold me
to keep the pieces together.
I'm slowly sinking in the sea
and there isn't any cure.

So for now I am rested.
My lungs filling with water,
flaming red, and on fire.
This is the end of their daughter.

The end of my life.
I've chosen to drown,
instead of taking the knife,
I have forced myself down.
