I think we should play a game,
You go home, snuggle down in bed,
I'll stay here and tie this noose,
Who'd miss me if I were dead?

Someone pass me a razor blade,
Maybe I'll hurt myself instead,
Stay by my side, I beg in tears,
Shaking from the words I almost said.

Can't smile?
Carve one.
Can't cry?
Pretend, then.
Can't breathe?
Stop trying.

Oh, brain, I thought you were coming in today.
I'm not, I got sick again.
Oh, that's a shame. Will you be in tomorrow?
Maybe. I'll try.
That's great, well, I'll leave you to your sickness now. Goodbye.

Always goodbye.
