Take my life away.

The attempts,

So many of them,

To say goodbye for a final time,

If I had a dime,

​For every time you hurt,

hunny I'd be millionaire,

Just because you don't care,

Doesn't mean I don't feel,

crying to sleep every night,

A layer of skin I peel,

I need that light in my darkness,

Because you took away my flame,

Now it's time to say goodbye,

A final attempt,

To add to the scoreboard,

21 to you,

​ none to me,

I need a key,

From which box you locked me,

But I can pick it,

Here with my rope,

I can't cope.
