Your not here and I'm scared
Please don't let it be true
I've done all I can to prevent this
But it can't be overlooked
I'm lying here in my mistakes
Swallowed by my never ending pain
Memories cut deeper then I can
I should've been more careful
To see the way this would've turned out
But to know the future is pointless
You can't change what you already know
I knew I would hurt you
And now I can't forgive myself
The way your eyes broke,
You never said a word.
My time is short
Forgive me for this act
This way I'm sure
Is the only way to keep you safe
So I'll never hurt you
No more lies and secrets
With this knife
I'll end it all
I'm sorry, for things I've never done
I'm glad your not here
To see me leave you behind
Let my broken soul rest
Where I can now make not mistakes
