Suicide (aka "Maybe")

Maybe if I wrap myself up tight in this Afghan
Snuggle up all warm and soft forgetting how its been
Maybe if I focus hard ignoring brutal truth
Let my mind start wandering back to my primal youth

(chorus)
Maybe if I slice these veins so nicely in a row
Hemorrhaging the ghastly pain to strike my bloody foe
Maybe if I jump the shark to exit in the night
Sleeping with the fishes while withholding breath and sight

Perspective is a dangerous thing to live inside the heart
Reflecting mortal fantasies unknowing where to start
Choosing to surrender hope is sometimes best for all
Delivering what cannot cope while rising to the call

(repeat chorus)

(bridge)
Not a single promise can restore what is no more
Let us just be honest sitting here beyond the door
Perception hides its strength when victory has lost its zeal
Mother Nature’s tempest roars the tiniest appeal

(repeat chorus)
