a/n. okay so i thought this song kind of went with the story/poems. it's better if you listen to it while reading this. it's one of my new favorite songs! (:


"Tourniquet" by Evanescence

I tried to kill the pain
But only brought more
(So much more)

I lay dying and I'm pouring
Crimson regret
And betrayal

I'm dying, praying
Bleeding, I'm screaming
"Am I too lost to be saved?
Am I too lost?"

My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation

Do you remember me?
Lost for so long
Will you be on the other side?
Or will you forget me?

I'm dying, praying
Bleeding and screaming
"Am I too lost to be saved?
Am I too lost?"

My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation

Return to me salvation
I long to die

My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation

My wounds cry for the grave
My soul cries for deliverance
Will I be denied Christ?
(Christ)
Tourniquet, my suicide
