Suicide (I am not suicidal; this is just about self-expression)


Just lately I've been feeling
Like I don't belong
Like the ground's not mine
To walk upon

And I sat watching a flower
As it was withering
I was embarrassed by
It's honesty

So please forgive what I have done
No, you can't stay mad at the setting sun
We all get tired, I mean, eventually
There is nothing left to do but sleep

But spring came bearing sunlight
Those persuasive rays
So I gave myself
A few more days

I wrote this for a baby
Who has yet to be born
I hope that womb's not too warm
Because it's cold out here
And it will be quite a shock
To breathe this air
To discover loss
So I'd like to make some changes
Before you arrive
So when your new eyes meet mine
They won't see no lies

Just love

-Bright Eyes-
