Bother

Wish I was too dead to cry

My self affliction fades

Stones to throw at my creator

Masochists to which I cater

You don't need to bother

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on I won't let go till it bleeds

Wish I was too dead to care

If indeed I cared at all

Never had a voice to protest

So you fed me shit to digest

I wish I had a reason

My flaws are open season

For this, I gave up trying

One good turn deserves my dying

You don't need to bother

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

Once I hold on I won't let go till it bleeds

Wish I'd died instead of lived

A zombie hides my face

Shell forgotten with its memories

Diaries left with cryptic entries

And you don't need to bother

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on I won't let go till it bleeds

You don't need to bother

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on I'll never live down my deceit
