These bitter vile words plague my head,
Soft little lies that build and break,
Telling them I am not quite dead.
With all of the feelings I fake.

Together what a pair we make,
Deep depression and hot self hate,
Staying home just to lie awake.
The knife far too heavy a weight .

It sits so cold against my skin.
What will it cost me to begin?
