I am haunted by ghosts throughout the years.
Drying blood and growing tears.
I left a girl hanging from a tree,
She said in a letter she was finally free.
I left a boy in a river cold,
Sinking to the bottom,
Heavy as gold.
I left a soul on the bathroom floor,
I couldn’t get in because they locked the door.
I left a boy with pills on his tongue,
He had let go of the lowest rung.
I left a girl with drugs in her system,
She didn’t speak because no one would listen.
I left my mother with a rotten brain,
She had flushed her medicine down the drain.
I left my father on the couch,
It was alcohol poisoning,
For that I can vouch.
I left my sister on a lonely street,
She didn’t look where she was going,
When she did she was already dead meat.
My younger brother whom I held so dear,
Jumped off a cliff,
Running from fear.
And.
Now all alone,
In a graveyard just for me.
I think about my tragic history.
I put the gun to my head,
Like them I’ll be dead.
Wait for me.
My loved, loved friends.
I’m coming to patch up loose ends.

Bang!

A boy lies in a graveyard of misery.
Killed by his own repeating history.
