Dark Days

Death is constant. Life is not.
So when you lay me in the ground don’t even give it a thought.
Lay me down, blanket me with earth. Let the worms consume my flesh so I can cause no hurt.

I don’t want to live like this.
Cold sweats and a balled up fist.
Being miserable is second nature to me.
No saving just let me be.

(Chorus)
Ill fated, no love for another.
If sleep is your cousin then I am your brother.
Oh death, take me away.
The hands of your god have brought only dark days.

Dark days. Dark days. Oh death, take me away.

(JT Cavey)
Can't even look in the mirror, without the vision of a gun to my head.
Or a rope around my neck.
I could slit my wrists with the sharpening pain that exists inside my head.

Can't even look in the mirror, without hating the reflection I see.
Dark days, dark days.
Oh death, take me away.
