I've got a mark on my head from resting on the window So high I can't control my skeleton What am I good for? Flies in my pockets and mind whirling through bounds I believe for all my life, I've never heard the sound They said, "But what will you leave behind?" I guess I'm not afraid of death I said, "I'll leave behind love to the lives I was graced to touch." I've got a mark on my skin for each time I find the blade So lost to love that I migrate to pain What am I good for? Knives in my closet with blood let to loneliness I believe for all my life, I've never heard the sound They said, "A permanent solution." But otherwise went their own. I wrote, "I'll leave behind the hate so that you may celebrate." I've got a bag of nails and a mask upon my face one extra for you and hammers for us two. If you don't mind us taking turns, I know just the way to hell. Maybe you don't believe in gods, but I believe they know us well. Always laughing doubled over, watching from somewhere else.
