In a world void of loving arms
Hollow when it comes to affection
She'd fallen too often for false charms
And was resentful of any connection
A safe haven to her, but to others, harm

With a slit of her frail wrists
A bottle of gin, four shots in
She considers the suicide olympics
In this life, she'll never win
All she wants is to end this

"You can't have your cake and eat it too."
But all she ever wanted was a friend
Pain was all they ever put her through
No one ever considered lending a hand
She had never met anyone who had been true

They come alone with kind eyes
They make promises and call her beautiful
It all renews her faith in guys
Then the brokenness they cause is plentiful
And her anger reaches new heights

So now she's here, all alone
Slumming it with the worst of them
The high she feels is her home
At least this way, her life won't end
*She's better off on her own
