You don't know me at all,
You can't pick me up when I fall.
You keep trying to make me crack,
Stupid you, just watch me bounce back.
Don't tell me how to live my life,
Don't tell me to stop playing with a knife.
You can't tell me what I can and can't do,
I do what I do all because of you.
You must be some sort of ugly joke,
Why don't you start to hang the rope?
A murderer lives here inside of me,
Closed from love. Never to be free.
Leave me alone and let me be,
I'll suffer in dark and try to see.
You think your helping but sorry your not,
Go pull up a chair so you can watch me rot.  
Want me to turn out to be just like you,
You isn't me. It wouldn't be true.
So stay away before I hit the ground,
Unawakened. Unseen. Lost and unfound.
Look at my scars,  see your name?
Brokeness cried out you're the one to blame.
See you're just making everything worse,
Why don't you go pull the trigger first?
You can't fix a heart with some needle and thread,
I'd rather you hold a gun up to my head.
Try to control me and my life,
What if you saw me on the floor with a knife?
Or see me hanging from the rope you tied?
How would you feel seeing my last tear cried?
Don't come close and keep your distance,
To love, to live, be gone in an instant.
