Jest

 
Show me your creation,

Written down in black ink.

Let me see your darkest thoughts;

I need a place to sink.

 

I want a place to disappear;

There really is no escape.

If I cannot have somebody to love,

Then I will no longer fight my fate.

 

Love is out there somewhere to find.

All I have to do is look with open eyes,

But I am blind to anybody who would be nice,

Because of the tears I have cried, so many times.

 

So cut me with your truthfulness,

I want this pain to hurt.

I am no longer playing just for jest.

Put me six feet in the dirt.
