Tonight

Tonight,
I wrote you a letter.
Sealed up tight,
What it's about, makes it even better

Tonight,
You came over,
To vent about the fight with your girlfriend
I always said you were like a brother.

Tonight,
You found me
Lying on the floor,
Consumed by what I wanted to be

Tonight,
You found the note
Lying on the desk,
Read in silence, you dropped your coat.

Tonight,
You sit on the floor crying,
Holding my cold hand,
Inside, you're dying.

Tonight,
You found the knife,
As you whispered "I love you"
You took your life

Tonight,
You stayed with me
Laid right there, beside me
It took this--to be?

Tonight,
We both laid there
Holding hands,
Emotions left bare.

Tonight,
We drown in our losses
Laying in our blood,
Look what it cost us.
