You take this knife and place it firmly in my chest,
I don't need my lungs anymore,
They're drowning in regret,
I'll take my hand and place it firmly on your mouth,
To smother all your hopeless screams,
When you realize there's no way out.

I pictured this a million times,
One million crimes,
The thrill of the kill playing on the screen,
The sight of the blood as it swallows me,
It's not right,
To take a life,
But tonight,
I'd like to end a story.

And it's not proper to have these thoughts, but,
No amount of time will make this stop,
I'm moving through water,
The faster I go the harder it gets,
When they find your body- jaws will drop,
Forget I ever thought of this.

I pictured this a million times,
One million crimes,
The thrill of the kill playing on the screen,
The sight of the blood as it swallows me,
It's not right,
To take a life,
But tonight,
I'd like to end a story.

Take your foot and place it firmly in your mouth,
Tongue in cheek- the cliché chic,
Empty your head and let the demons out,
You'll end up here- no paddle in the creek,
You take this knife and place it firmly in my chest,
I don't need my lungs anymore,
They're drowning in regret,
I'll take my hand and place it firmly on your mouth,
To smother all your hopeless screams,
When you realize there's no way out.

I pictured this a million times,
One million crimes,
The thrill of the kill playing on the screen,
The sight of the blood as it swallows me,
It's not right,
To take a life,
But tonight,
I'd like to end a story.

I saw you there a million times,
Your breath hung in the cold air,
I took your life one million times,
And I'm sorry that it got there,
I'm sorry that it stopped there.
