Crimson Teardrops

broken down
tarnished crown
crimson teardrops
soak my gown

almost died
by suicide
crimson teardrops
fall inside

all alone
no one's home
crimson teardrops
soak this poem

lost and lonely
no one cares
crimson teardrops
desperate prayers

bright red slashes
across my wrists
crimson teardrops
can't resist

frantic thoughts
run through my head
crimson teardrops
better off dead

falling fast
silent screams
crimson teardrops
broken dreams

awful memories
empty eyes
crimson teardrops
my demise

falsely promised
wordless fears
crimson teardrops
for all these years

no one's noticed
what was wrong
crimson teardrops
now i'm gone
