There would be no more stains drying on the floor
Because there would no body here to cry any more
There would be no misery spreading far and wide
Because there would be no hidden agony inside

If I was gone
This could all end
And you'd never have to
See me again
And you'd never have to
Call me your friend

Starlight, and hopes bright, killed by a sad plight
Unable to see what's wrong from what's right
And I don't know why, oh I don't know why
I just know that I'm to blame for the tears don't dry
Nightmares, and dark scares, thrive where no one cares
In a world of illuminated shadow where pain is laid bare
I haven't slept for over a year, no I haven't slept for over a year
Because I know I'm to blame for the unending fear

If I was gone This could all end And you'd never have to see See me again And you'd never have to Call me your friend

You can't depend on me, broken as I am in agony
I don't see why you waste your breath
There's nothing here to trust in, not when I am the source of all sin
Please don't spare me from my long-awaited death
Because if nothing else
I know that I deserve the grave that's waiting for me
And I'll never again plague you with my misery

If I was gone
This could all end
And you'd never have to
See me again

If I was gone
