Space Bound
In this empty house I sit alone…..me and my thoughts…..crazy as they might be
Contemplating about ending it all
Kimber 1911 picked up, barrel placed in my mouth, anticipation from the suicide
Uvula blowing in the wind
Tell me why I shouldn’t blow my brains out
Leave fragments of my mind scattered across this room
After all I am dying anyway
Damn letting this disease suck my life force
Too strong for my own good
Never wanting a helping hand
How can they understand
What I am going through
The therapy will leave me weak and there is no way I can ever be the vulnerable
No not me
Not where the public can see
Pride will call me faster than what I am suffering from
Tears rain down my face, soon they will be covered by blood
If only I can just pull the trigger
(Do it)
No I can’t do this
(Do it)
But what about my family….my son, he won’t have a father
(Do it they are all better off without you, just let them take the insurance money….you’re better off dead)
Voices in my head aren’t doing much to help me
Chamber a round, tilt my head back
(This is it)
Hand shaking
(Steady it don’t punk out on me now)
I…….I can’t
(C’MON MAN!)
No I have too much to live for
I know I can beat this and not let it beat me
Praying for my health as I tackle this head on
What doesn’t kill me only makes me stronger
And if it should rot my body then when you bury me remember it is buried in that grave site and my soul is spotless
