Oh dear Mr. Bright
It's time to awake from the night
Tonight's been a long one
I've been waiting patiently for the rising sun
But as time passes, my patience grows thin
I got so bored I started carving symbols in my skin
I didn't feel any pain, oddly enough
I guess it's just my way of coping with stuff
3:45 and I'm still awake
I need to get some sleep, for my heart's sake
The snakes under my bed are starting to annoy me
They think it's funny to slither and toy with me
But what can I do against seven deadly snakes?
My fear grows as each one of them takes
A part of my body, a part of my soul
The cuts that I made earlier are taking their toll
It's 4:25 now, I could really use a friend
But no one's up and the night won't end
I look out my window, but there's no stars in the sky
The snakes are closing in now, I know I might die
This is a goodbye to all who I love
I'm in pain, so I look above
As my blood seeps out and the venom sinks in
I close my eyes with regret, seeing only my sins
I'm sorry I hurt you, I'm sorry I didn't care
I'm sorry I messed up, I'm sorry I wasn't there
I don't expect forgiveness but please give me this
A filling for my empty heart, fill it with bliss
