It Is Not So Bad

On my floor
grasping my wrist
gasping for air
it wasnt succesful
but it was close
i was so damn close
paramedics here
clean my blood
from the tile
take me away
stabilizie
in the hospital
they make me stay the night
but now i am
home again
dreams do not come
only nightmares encircle me
bandage
on my arm
reminds me
i have seen
death
stared it in the eyes
reached out to him
but i was
pulled back
i dont want
to live like this
everyone thinks im insane
they laugh and make
fun of me
can you blame them
at all
no no
everybody
knows the story
and nobody
talk to the kid
who tried
to slit his wrists
so now
im drowning
in a darker
colder
place
than i was before
it is getting
getting much worse
so i swallow a bottle
make it go away
banish the demons
for half a day
they will come back
beckoning me
they have come back
and my will is gone
the bandage is gone
stare
into my scar
still healing
im not healing
maybe i could
open it up
maybe that would
open me up
and kill
kill this pain
yeah
it's not so bad
it is not so bad.....
