A Perfect Suicide

Two pills: I’ll be free, don’t you think?
Is it the only way?
One rope for my throat ‘round that pole

One jump through the glass of that door
Flying down to the floor
One blade for my veins like a kiss

Time to close my eyes
Time to say goodbye
Time for some of you
To shed some hollow, deceitful tears

All my life’s been a joke
Plenty of misery
I’ve been chasing memories
Of the child that I keep in my mind

…perfect suicide…
You’ll never see me crying…
That is a fair way to close with my pain
…perfect suicide…
There’s only a way to go…
Out of this world where my hopes were foreclosed and lost

I can see your eyes full of scorn
Have you ever thought
I was so afraid and desperate

You hate what you fear, that’s the [bad word] 
That’s your call: I’m done
I’m one step closer to you

Time to close my eyes
Time to say goodbye
Time for some of you
To shed some hollow, deceitful tears

All my life’s been a joke
Plenty of misery
I’ve been chasing memories
Of the child that I keep in my mind

…a perfect suicide…
You’ll never see me crying…
That is a fair way to close with my pain
…a perfect suicide…
There’s only a way to go…
Out of this world where my hopes were foreclosed and lost
…a perfect suicide…
