Keep Breathing
By stumbleine queen
They say in time all wounds will heal,
But "they" don't know this pain I feel.
All time does is make things worse,
'til life itself becomes a curse.
My shaky hand locks the door
Crimson droplets paint the floor
My bloodstained hand drops the blade
As all my problems seem to fade
They say in time all wounds will heal
Well, "they" don't know this pain I feel
But life goes on, as it always does
And I'll keep breathing, just because.
