Adam's Song-Blink 182

I am Sinking...

The girls at the Treatment Center
that I used to work with were Cutters

I often wondered how they could do it
Hurt themselves
Cut their arms
Multiple slashes

But now...
Tonight
I looked at my own wrist...
Watching
that Little vein...so relaxed
Then tightened
When making a Fist
Bulging

I was once told that Sadness could be Beautiful
I was once asked if I would ever hurt Myself

I do NOW believe the Answer is NO to both questions
But I do Now also...
Understand How my girls could
Cut themselves......


Too Blue
-Langston Hughes

I got those sad old weary blues.
I don't know where to turn.
I don't know where to go.
Nobody cares about you
When you sink so low.

What shall I do?
What shall I say?
Shall I take a gun and
Put myself away?

I wonder if
One bullet would do?
Hard as my head is,
It would probably take two.

But I ain't got
Neither bullet or gun-
And I'm too blue
To look for one.

Adam's Song
-Blink 182
"I never thought
I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest, who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all

I took my time,
I hurried up
The choice was mine, I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed, To go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone"
