Breaking Point

What do you do
When everything's already been done
When you look around
And you know you haven't won

Your eyes glow red
  With frustration and hate
Do you turn your cheek
   Through with this date

You growl so hard
   Making your throat bleed
Do you tear up the paper
   Entitled deed

You snort smoke
   Full of anger and desire
Do you clinch your fist
   Letting the smoke rise higher

Your teeth chatter
   From the coolness of the venom
Do you turn on her
   Your dearest friend and victim

What do you do
When your breaking point's been hit
You know what you should do
But you can't just hang around and sit

Do you hold it all in
   Just like I
Waiting for the right moment
   To not let it go with just a sigh

Do you go into a room
All alone
Screaming and cursing
Breaking bones

Or do you simply
Slide down the wall
With the tears crashing down
Knowing you've already done it all

What do you do
When everything's already been done
When you look round
And you know you haven't won.
