ive tried and tried but

the simple fact is im just not strong enough.

i imagine taking it to my dad

the same way ive asked him sometimes to open jars.

could you do me a favour?

ive been trying for a while but i just cant seem to get it

wrap his fingers around the blade

can you be strong for me?

guide his hand over to my warm skin

it would really help me out if you can finish this off

make my body still as possible

all of this is to make it easier for you, dont you understand?

i love you, dont you understand?

but i just want to be cold, don't you understand?  

i need you, dont you understand?
