I just want you to know
That when I finally slit my wrists...
My aim is to haunt you
Each and every night
When I call your name
You'll be doused in fright
And you'll feel the same
You'll feel just right
Just like I want you to
When I haunt you

We were always looking for so much more
We never thought things would decay
We would dance but we were bound for the floor
Side by side, sweaty and stained, we'd lay
Never thought that we'd see the day
In which we were so far
So far, so far apart
But now we're looking through telescopes
And ******* brail
Can't seem to figure it out
Couldn't seem to endure this Hell

So now I say
"Just **** it. It has to be this way."
We're done but we've got so much more to pay
Still owe the debt to the dark
Still can't walk without a the limp
Our lives are weighed by our hearts
Our bodies, swollen and floating like blimps
Cursed to roam the world with one eye
Blessed with the knowing of our future
There really is no use to even fight
Anymore, evermore. ******* we lure,
Into our orbit
Attempting to change the way we see
But these are our eyes
No one's attempts to imagine come close the sea.

Then, right then, things went to ****.
Driven apart by forces unforseen.
I'm bloodied, one too many times hit.
My body's weary, too lean to be mean.
So now I'm saying that I'm giving up.
Lost and tortured and stuck in this rut.
No getting out, no leaving this horror.
Planning to take the route of the coward
Cut myself and let my body rot.
So goodbye, my dear, goodbye to you.
Goodbye to the world,
I'm past due.
So now, I'm gonna haunt you.
John
