Life Commences

Drop the knives and take the pen
Fifteen lasting scar's commend
Throwing out your bleeding future
Awaiting for life to begin
Sinking rythyms in your soul
Leaving death to take it's toll
Countless dollars spent on horrors
Reading books of pure terror
Dreaming of a new life
One that's free from this strife
Writer's hands start to crumble
As the Earth shakes wake
I ignore my aching fingers
For I'd rather this ink bleed
Than see my scars reopen
And watch the crimson trail it leaves
All my years written in pen
Erasing parts that don't make sense
I'm waiting for life to begin
