Crying on the ground
She pulls herself together
Amazed that she can
Breathe with all the pain
But the hurt is so good,
That whole in her chest
gets bigger every day
The edges of her heart
Have now grown raw
She wraps her arms around herself
So she won't fall apart
But it's too much
To handle
She reaches to the razor
It's her best friend
The one that never lies
Pulling it to her wrist
She has to do it right
One deep line
Down the length of her arm
A sigh of relief the pain has come
The hurt feels nice.
She's been so numb
Since you've gone away
But now she'll just be gone
She won't wake from
The calamity of her dreams
And no more will she slip.
She won't be searching for the impossible
And you won't have to worry about her
Because it will all be over
And she'll be gone forever
