Failing at Failing

Contributed by KJ on Friday, 15th August 2003 @ 12:25:00 PM in AEST
Topic: Suicide

fears are saved
(to retain insanity)
tears are wasted
(due to lack of simplicity)
truth is exposed
(lies are revealed)
everything unfolds
(everything that was sealed)

life is bliss
(of course it is)
along with fists
(don't get *****)
slit your wrist
(you're a failure)
wait, you're not dismissed
(there is no cure)

sit back down
(why should I?)
don't frown
(why don't you try?)
just drown
(why make it ordinary?)
Run out of town
(why make them worry?)

don't think twice,
(it's not worth it)
ask no advice
(not an allowed permit)
just roll the dice
(see how lucky you are)
another device
(made by a human, it's bizarre)

created to confuse
(thats what it loves to do)
leaving a bruise
(beautiful purple and blue)
for their own muse
(add a little dance routine)
please, don't refuse
(it doesn't have to be seen)

you've failed at failing
(you deserve a standing ovation)
the attempt is unavailing
(you've lost your motivation)
silence, go back and live
(let bliss assail around you)
don't just receive, also give
(live for others, and yourself too)

open your eyes
(not necessarily wide)
just enough to cry
(you've failed at suicide)
congratulations my dear
(this is one of the times failing is acceptable)
the reason for tears being clear
(is for you to see things that weren't perceptible)
