Today
from Roses Are Black


today i tried to kill you but it was only in my head
his words have betrayed you so i kill myself instead
dear soul i lied to you i was only playing games
but you did well to the the beatings that i gave

wake up crying every morning's the same
choke back the tears and play the waiting game
talk to your tv like it's your best friend
go to bed so you can do it all over again

sitting on your hands it takes booze to make you move
when help is only halfway from the things you shouldn't do
today i tried to kill you but it was only in my mind
pills are so expensive so i kill myself this time

wake up crying every morning's the same
choke back the tears and play the waiting game
talk to your tv like it's your best friend
go to bed so you can do it all over again

it's the fallout that you fear
so afraid you'll disappear

how long, how long have i been lied to again
i can feel the shame of shadows in your gaze
but i'm not wrong if you are
don't wanna waste your time
today i tried to kill you but it was only in my mind

wake up crying every morning's the same
choke back the tears and play the waiting game
talk to your tv like it's your best friend
go to bed so you can do it all over again
