SUICIDE

AND THEY SAY TIME HEALS
BUT WITH TIME I BECOME MORE ILL
MY DEEP WOUNDS CANNOT HEAL
MY INFECTED SCARS CAN KILL
EVEN IF I HEAR THE WORDS OF THE WISE
THEIR WISDOM IS BLEAK
AND IT WILL NOT HEAL 
I INDULGE IN MY ILLNESS
I SWALLOW MY PAIN
I WANT TO BE COLD
AND BLOW UP MY BRAINS
AND THEY SAY TIME HEALS
BUT WITH TIME I BECOME MORE ILL
