Give and take

my mind is turning black
where's my savior now
im off the beaten path
and i dont know where to go.
my hands are red with blood
im forgetting all i knew
my life is flowing down,
down into a pool

all i've known is lost,
sanity and my mind
everything is gone-

my thoughts turn to stone,(as you sit right there)
smiling over at me, (so viscously)
i dont know what to do
is there anything i can do?
all i've known is lost,
sanity and my mind
everything is gone-

my thoughts drip out
as i slowly die
i'd lay down my head,
but i'd slowly drown
all i've known in this life
is rejection, and hate
if you give then you take
so prepare to die

i really want to regret (the things i've done)
i really want to say no (the next time)
it's never gonna happen,
i can't control myself

all i've known is lost,
sanity and my mind
everything is gone-

my thoughts drip out
as i slowly die
i'd lay down my head,
but i'd slowly drown
all i've known in this life
is rejection, and hate
if you give then you take
so prepare to die

Woah. I can almost hear you screaming parts of this at an audience. It's powerful without coming across as whining and bitching. I enjoy where you said "i really want to regret (the things i've done)
i really want to say no (the next time)" It hits close to home for me, things I want to regret and never want to do again, yet I can never seem to say no when the time comes to make the choice. Keep writing J.
