Wish
you could turn off the questions, turn off the voices, turn off the all the sound
Learn
to close out the ugliness, close out the flithiness, close out all light
Long
to cast away yesterday, cast away memory, cast away all jeopardy
Pray
you could somehow stop the uncertainty, somehow stop loathing, somehow stop the pain
Act
on your impulse, swallow the bottle, cut alittle deeper, put the gun to your chest.
