Bleeding gently
Screaming soft
No more breathing

The night is long
For we are weak

When there's nothing to laugh about
I know that if I didn't laugh
The tears would all spill out.
...
I tried to be 'badass'
it didn't work
I tried to be good
it made my head hurt

Come take my hand
I'll take you down
I'll take you round on
My merry-go-round
