Lyrics

The steel is cold against my skin
Funny how this is not the way I had pictured it
Sweat trickles down, I?m breathing so damn loud
Waiting for the click that I won?t hear

And I realize I don?t wanna die
I just want someone to notice
Every unheeded sign
If they rush in in time to see me trying
Maybe then they?ll listen, maybe then they?ll care

The rope scratches as it tightens
Toes just long enough to hold the stool
Twitch at every sound, my knees are shaking now
Praying for the snap and not the swing

And I realize I don?t wanna die
I just want someone to notice
Every unheeded sign
If they rush in in time to see me try it
Maybe then they?ll listen, maybe then they?ll care

The venom is swimming through my veins now
Taste like a penny on my tongue
Light is fading out, and it just hit me now
Oh my god it?s too late to change my mind

And I realize I?m really dying
I just hope someone will notice
Every unheeded sign
That so many leave behind with their quiet cries
Maybe now they?ll listen, oh god I?m slipping

That?s all I wanted, that?s all they?ll ever need
That?s all I wanted, that?s all they?ll ever need
All they?ll ever need, just listen
