If you did it once, you will do it again
If you killed me once, you will dump me again
When you broke me last, you wished it'd happen again
If you think you love me, you should consider again

I woke up this morning
With a lump in my throat
And a knot in my stomach
I'm feeling scared
I'm seeing shadows
Again
I'm wanting to let go and drown  
Life's going grey  
Looks like it's going to rain
Again
I'm letting myself down
Getting addicted to the pain
Again
I'm creeping back into the safe dark
Again
Burying myself in my own ashes
Again
Someone hurt me
Again
I hurt myself today
Again
What do you want me to say
In the end

for time, these patterns and tasks. One

could use the help, nevertheless on.
I write with purpose
