Regret

I taste these bloody tears,

Hold my hand- release my fears.

Drown me in the murky water,

Wish I could've been a better daughter.

Nothing's right with me,

So I'm sorry I couldn't be-

The little girl you wanted me to be.

Cut my wrists and say good night,

Too bad I didn't lead a good life.

One that I would surely miss,

But instead I end up with this.

I regret ever knowing about those times,

About those times-

When you couldn't realize,

The lonely girl left in the corner-

And the day would come when you would mourn her.

I feel so used,

Like I'm just here to amuse.

To make this family seem perfect and normal,

When you make me dress all happy and formal.

But due that, now I will bleed,

To release myself- this is ecstasy.

Now this world is so desolate,

I feel my knees go weak again-

Help me up, pretend you care,

Make up for, all the times you were never there.

I regret ever knowing about those times,

About those times-

When you couldn't realize,

The lonely girl left in the corner-

And the day would come when you would mourn her.
