After it was over
I could smoke and I felt sick.
Full of nothing (Full of yourself you gassy whore)
And it’s not a choice
I can live with is it?
I killed and did so
Because I didn’t know what else to do
And I can’t take it
Back I can’t ever take
This back.
I should be plucked off and thrown away
By those who did not want me.
And I am sorry to those that were let
Down or to those that could have held you…
I need help.
