cut the rope

it's not me that you're,
it's not me that you're,
looking for.

just keep trying some more,
I'm not even,
alive anymore.

hold me back before,
hold me back before,
I slip away.

it's not really that far.
maybe I should just,
drop the weight.

and they're screaming,
I can hear them say,
you're doing just fine!
but I know I'm not,
they don't know me,
they don't know my mind.

can I stay for a while?
you don't want me to?
that's okay with me.

I'm not hosting a trial,
so everyone out.
I like solitary.

long nights with lost friends,
darkness eats me again.
I don't mind.

vivid images of death,
take over in my head,
it's becoming inscribed.

and they're screaming,
I can hear them say,
you're doing just fine!
but I know I'm not,
they don't know me,
they don't know my mind.
