Why?
Why have the pain
When there's more than this
I don't need a razor across my wrist.

Why slit lines when you can achieve your goal
Step back and set ablaze to my soul.

Why fall down in agony of defeat
When you can tear out my heart and eat.

Why close your eyes and lay down your head
When you can kill me slowly instead.

Why bother again day after day
Cut me into pieces if you may.
It'll be more fun that way.
