Go ahead, pick your poison The thought races through my mind It burns a hole in my brain I just want to get it over with I close my eyes and pick up the first thing I feel A gun, I bring it to my head and pull the trigger as quickly as I can... Nothing... I throw it down, picking up the next thing A bottle of pills, I try and down more than enough, but they won't go down... I throw them away too I take the blade by my bed stand and I go to cut...but I can't bring it closer... I close my eyes and I let the tears flow from my eyes He wants me to stay...but I just want to be with him

Go ahead, pick your poison The thought races through my mind It burns a hole in my brain I just want to get it over with I close my eyes and pick up the first thing I feel A gun, I bring it to my head and pull the trigger as quickly as I can... Nothing... I throw it down, picking up the next thing A bottle of pills, I try and down more than enough, but they won't go down... I throw them away too I take the blade by my bed stand and I go to cut...but I can't bring it closer... I close my eyes and I let the tears flow from my eyes He wants me to stay...but I just want to be with him
This is about the struggle of a woman who lost her boyfriend and wants to join him, but just the thought of what he would think is what is stopping her from joining him.
