Lyrics
I wonder what my suicide will do to my family Will they think they failed themselves, didn’t love me or care for me? Will they need therapy? Will my mom and dad blame their parenting? When they speak about their children would it be too embarrassing? Damaging is my posthumous effect Forever a subtle yet haunting and ominous regret Lingers over my soul and makes my brother upset From emotions I’ve repressed built up from utter neglect What’ll be the legend of my death? Asphyxia from a rope? An overdose from what I ingest? I bet I die just shy of my best and people criticize why I left Cuz they think life is priceless Well who’s gon' pay respect at my funeral huh? Who’s gon' speak about my life and lie and say it was beautiful? Will anyone care *censored* like it and share And send a prayer from they’re office cubicles Take a trip and get lost with me My blood line stops with me Take me away on the gurney And listen to my words and follow me on my journey Take a trip and get lost with me My blood line stops with me Take me away on the gurney And listen to my words and follow me on my journey Follow me all the way, living’s so hard today And I don’t know how much longer I can take it How much longer I can fake it, how much longer I can be this, how much longer I can treat this How much longer I can keep this inside I’m all alone and nobody by my side Except U and I and maybe S And like those letters my life has nothing left It’s so hard to live when you’re a failure at everything but a perfectionist So follow me all the way All the way, all the way Take a trip and get lost with me My blood line stops with me Take me away on the gurney And listen to my words and follow me on my journey Take a trip and get lost with me My blood line stops with me Take me away on the gurney And listen to my words and follow me on my journey Follow me all the way, all the way all the way Follow me all the way, all the way all the way
