I'm worth more dead So lay me down and zip the body bag…
“I'm worth more dead So lay me down and zip the body bag Come on babe,this is the ending you hoped for So take it and run and don't look down Because I'm one step behind chasing you're flying arms These trying times just remind me of those crying times When everything was all my fault I'm insecure now because this isn't what it looked like on T.V. The blood is red and it's right in front of me But it doesn't hurt the way it should, and the numb is gone My arms fallen off...and this wound will never heal I'm better off alone Isn't that what you want me to admit So you could trade the toy in for the real thing And stop imagining I'm somebody elses skin Because we all know how this ends, the same as how it begins With me laying lifeless on the floor And you running and hoping...and slamming the door... I'm insecure now because this isn't what it looked like on T.V. The blood is red and it's right in front of me But it doesn't hurt the way it should, and the numb is gone My arms fallen off...and this wound will never heal There's heals and there's ankle There's lips and there's wrists Of those many options My throat is still my favorite thing to slit This wound will never heal”
