Easy Exit

It's a tradgedy,
To wake up in the morning,
In the shadow of her body.
That stretches past my face,
Past the worry, past the pain.
Closer now to the open wound,
The broken flesh,
The blood that spills.
Nothing close to the tears we've distilled.

Your sympathy is killing me,
Your pity so unwilling.
Pull away from your embrace,
I refuse to even look at your face.
At the cracks from where you grin,
Where you cry, where you sin,
You wipe away the morning dust,
From the sheets,
So unused they might just rust.
The last time i fell in love,
We at least made an effort to touch.
but everything about you is so sore.
I'd rather just ignore.

In the middle of the night
I stray away from this endless fight
She grasps my hand, grasps my heart
I don't think she could bear us being apart
Maybe I should stay
But I just want to be away
Away from this pain
God, it's driving me insane

I miss you now,
I guess it's only kicking in
It's how i should have missed you then.
And if I don't recover,
Just let the illness win.
Don't watch, helpless.
I'm becoming a mess.
I'm a wreck.
I don't want to be awake, alive.
This isn't love to be desired.

My mind is screwing up
I've never been so confused
Do I want you back?
Or should I just leave you in the dirt?
Lying on the ground, screaming in agony
Longing for love
Waiting for our bodies to touch
It's just too much.

n the middle of the night
I stray away from this endless fight
She grasps my hand, grasps my heart
I don't think she could bear us being apart
Maybe I should stay
But I just want to be away
Away from this pain
God, it's driving me insane

What would I give,
To close tired eyes.
To lay myself to rest.
To leave the distress.
The unrest.
To lie, to never move again.
I could be dead,
But it's hard to tell.

I could take a life, heck, I'd take mine,
All to rid myself of this hell
It could all end in a single blow
Why not just do it?
A simple cut
An easy exit.
