7 Ways to Die

By Bittersweet Life

Gun to my head and the safety's off
Is there anything you can say that'll make me stop?

Blade to my wrists and the bloods running hot
Someone shut me off before my head goes POP

Standing on a chair, one foot in the air
Is there anybody out there that even cares?

Trying to convince myself that life's not fair
Just fuckin do it, there's no reason to be scared 

Bottle in my hand and pills in my mouth
Crying into my hands while my life goes south 

Face underwater with my hands pushing down
Trying my best but I just can't drown 

Foot on the pedal and hands off the wheel
Thinking to myself that this life's not real

Lying on the tracks wearing all grey and black
As the train bears down on me there's no turning back

These scars aren't fading and these wounds won't heal
Please god help me, I just don't want to feel
