Sometimes I wish
My car would hit a tree
I'd catch on fire
And let death overtake me
But to speak those words
Would be insane
No one's supposed to know
The poisoned thoughts laced in my brain
No one's supposed to know the rules to my sickening game
We pretend we don't matter
That our twisted thoughts are straight
Our souls darken and become sadder
We surrender to our predetermined fate
These mountains of burdens we carry
We were only supposed to climb
And these words that haunt me
I can't help but need to rhyme
I'm running out of time
Save my mind
Sometimes I wish
My heart would stop
I'd cut off my lungs
And let my breathing halt
But to speak those words
Would be insane
No one's supposed to know
The poisoned thoughts laced in my brain
No one's supposed to know the rules to my sickening game
We pretend we don't matter
That our twisted thoughts are straight
Our souls darken and become sadder
We surrender to our predetermined fate
These mountains of burdens we carry
We were only supposed to climb
And these words that haunt me
I can't help but need to rhyme
I'm running out of time
Save my mind
Save my mind
Help me breathe
I don't want to die
I want to be
I'm running out of time
Save my mind
