My Mechanic to Cope.

I sit to write and my head goes blank.

Many a time i've longed to walk a plank - to rest for eternity.

To be frank - *takes a drag*

Working 3 jobs I give myself on the back, a pat - well done.

The rents lose their way, more than 20,000 in student fees to pay.

To stay - *takes a drag*

I must find my ray - of sunlight, something to guide my way.

Plunged in deep, my heart it begs and weeps.

Pray for mercy but she's asleep.

For what has been sown, must be reaped. I get the call, my other half

She bleeds, please. *takes a drag*

Years go by, I fight and cry - but on the inside. *takes a drag*

To others I flash a smile and say, I'm fine. *takes a drag*

My other half, she dies.

Darkness is all that surrounds me - the tears are all that fall,

From my eyes. My body - goes numb.

*takes a long drag*

And a coward like me, stares down into the sea - from the plank.
