Free you

I carve away at my arm,
Carve away at my life,
You carved your initial into my soul,
Carved your image into my mind.
Now I can't get rid of it,
Can't get rid of you;
Can't escape from the love,
But it all feels so used.
I know what I did will be my undoing,
It's unravelling me like a string;
I can't help but cut myself,
Because I cannot feel a thing.

At least I know you're happy,
And I know that you'll be okay;
I guess that's one good thing,
To mark my last day.

As I sit back and pop these cyanide,
I cover my arm to try and hide;
All the pain I've caused you,
All the harsh things I've said,
Will fade away into dream,
Once I am dead.

At this point I'm getting tired,
I can feel my heart beginning to stop,
I look at the wall,
::tick, tock; tick, tock::
My time is almost over,
So I'm going to end this soon;
I want you to remember me,
And all of our memories too.

So this is "bye" to you my dear,
No one else should care to hear;
How much I truly love you,
And how I mean it so sincere.
But perhaps you don't need it,
I want you in no more pain;
That is why I'm leaving now,
To free you from my strain....
