Look the other way.
You don't have to see this.
Don't watch me falling.
Don't watch my life force drain away.
Don't watch me fade.
Don't watch my body tire,
And my soul wither away.
Don't watch my eyes lose the life,
The happiness they contained.
Don't watch my face pale,
To a sickly color white.
Don't watch me slip into darkness,
And hide within myself.
A permanent residence,
From which I can't be withdrawn.
You don't have to see it.
Look the other way.
Continue as you always have.
Pretend I'm not here.
Ignorance is bliss.
It's too late to change it,
The way you grind me,
Into the dirt.
And leave me there,
To recover slowly,
Sometimes not at all.
Don't turn around now.
Don't change your ways.
It'll hurt you.
You can't do anything,
Even if you wished to.
I've gone over the edge.
And now I'm falling.
I don't want you to watch me fall.
