If you’re reading this its already too late
Your already standing over my dead body
Over my dead body
Over my dead body

How do I look?
Do I look at ease?
Do I look scared?
I knew it was either me or you
Do you remember what I said?
"I'll let you have it over my dead body"
Now you've got it, over my dead body
Don't I always keep my word?

Tell my parents I'm sorry
I wouldn't have thought it'd end like this either
Tell this world there's some thing I'll miss
Like nature, and a steady simple beat

So this my note
That suicide note we're all so scared to write (even if we want to)
But I didn't write this just this night
No, this is just the culmination
Of over 7 years of hopelessness
This is my childhood innocence and joy
Finally reduced to nothing
This is the hope in humanity
Finally allowed to disappear
This is that paranoia of myself
Finally taking control

This is when I said
"You'll get me to give up over my dead body"
This is it
Over my dead body
Over my dead body
You're standing over my dead body
