I’ve pleaded for death
For my life to be done
I’ve called for the reaper
But he hasn’t come

I’m afraid to die
I’m scared it will hurt
But life hurts so much
It can’t be much worse

Then it will be over
The pain and the stress
The longing and sadness
And deep loneliness

I wish that my parents
Hadn’t had me
That I’d never been born
And that I wasn’t me

I’m tired of trying
And giving my all
Of doing my best
Only to fall

I’m tired of loving
With my heart on my sleeve
Of being reminded
That everyone leaves

I don’t want to die
But I’m sick of life
It’s a double-edged blade
On a big scary knife

Both choices ****
Either way I lose
Nothing is easy
Whichever I choose

She took her love
Away from me
Something I thought
I’d never see

She stopped loving me
And I don’t know why
Now all that’s left
Is to sit and cry

She broke my heart
When she left that day
I thought she’d never
Go away

She was there for me
For thirty years
To share my smiles
And dry my tears

Then she turned away
And walked out the door
And nothing’s the same
As it was before

Without her love
I feel incomplete
A jigsaw puzzle
With a missing piece

She was there all my life
Through good and through bad
Now she’s disappeared
And it makes me so sad

Hurt and confused
And wondering why
She left without
Even saying goodbye

I loved her so much
All these years
Now all that’s left
Are memories and tears

It’s him that I want
Though Heaven knows why
He’s not all that different
From those other guys

What makes him so special?
What makes me yearn?
Well that’s a secret
I’ve yet to learn

They think that they’re funny
They play with my mind
To them it’s a game
To me it’s unkind

It’s just a joke
Or so they say
What they don’t know
Is they just ruined my day

If you love someone and they love you
But it doesn't work out what do you do?
You try really hard to make it work out
But ever present is the doubt

Is he the one you should be with?
Is true love a fact or a myth?
Is there someone meant just for you?
Or will you be waiting your whole life through?

You love him now but you've loved before
Who’s to say you won’t love anymore?
It doesn't work so you call it quits
But as time passes you reminisce

You miss the good times
And how happy you were
But it’s too late now
‘Cause he’s found her

Sleep eludes me
Runs off and hides
I can't seem to find it
Though I've searched far and wide

I toss and I turn
Unable to rest
I turn and I toss
But still get no rest

Insomnia holds me
Won't set me free
I try to break loose
While he laughs at me

Where is the Sandman
I'm longing to see
To fight off Insomnia
And help me find sleep?

Asleep on the job
Not ready to work
Wake up and help me
You Sandman ****!

They think that he’s perfect
They think that he’s prime
But I don’t want him
Or he could be mine

I could have him if I tried
But he’s not worth my time

He’s just a pretty face
A great body too
But I've got better taste
I’m in-love with you!
