From a favorite band of mine...Pantera. It may be against the rules here to post work from someone other than yourself, but this is the way I feel today, and it must be expressed....
Diet of life, shelter without, the face that cannot see inside yours and mine
When I'm hiding, when I need it, it lets me breathe,
for our handle on this life, I don't believe....this time
Would you look at me now?
Can you tell I'm a man?
With these scars on my wrists to prove I'll try again
Try to die again, try to live through this night
Try to die again.....
Forever fooling, free and using, sliding down the slide that breaks a will
Mothers angel, getting smarter, how smart are you to regress unfulfilled?
It's a damn shame, but who's to blame?
When I'm hiding, when I need it, it lets me breathe,
for our handle on this life, I don't believe....this time
Would you look at me now?
Can you tell I'm a man?
With these scars on my wrists to prove I'll try again
Try to die again, try to live through this night
Try to die again.....

Suicide Note (Part I)
Cheap cocaine, a dry inhale, the pills that kill and take the pain awayDiet of life, shelter without, the face that cannot see inside yours and mine
When I'm hiding, when I need it, it lets me breathe,
for our handle on this life, I don't believe....this time
Would you look at me now?
Can you tell I'm a man?
With these scars on my wrists to prove I'll try again
Try to die again, try to live through this night
Try to die again.....
Forever fooling, free and using, sliding down the slide that breaks a will
Mothers angel, getting smarter, how smart are you to regress unfulfilled?
It's a damn shame, but who's to blame?
When I'm hiding, when I need it, it lets me breathe,
for our handle on this life, I don't believe....this time
Would you look at me now?
Can you tell I'm a man?
With these scars on my wrists to prove I'll try again
Try to die again, try to live through this night
Try to die again.....
