45

Mar 06, 2006 20:27

I have had a lot of meaningful conversations today.. but at the same time. I'm still here. Some people are glad, I'm sure others are just telling me to get it over with. It's ok. I understand. I've realized that I'm in a position that I put myself in. Soon, I will be sending letters to everyone that needs one. If you didn't receive one from me.. consider yourself one of the few people that didn't contribute to my... loss. Goodbye everyone.

Shinedown- 45
Send away for a priceless gift
One not subtle, one not on the list
Send away for a perfect world
One not simply, so absurd
In these times of doing what you're told
You keep these feelings, no one knows
What ever happened to the young man's heart
Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart

And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45 (45),
Swimming through the ashes of another life (another life)
No real reason to accept the way things have changed
Staring down the barrel of a 45

Send a message to the unborn child
Keep your eyes open for a while
In a box high up on the shelf, left for you, no one else
There's a piece of a puzzle known as life
Wrapped in guilt, sealed up tight

What ever happened to the young man's heart
Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart

CHORUS

Everyone's pointing their fingers
Always condemning me
And nobody knows what I believe
I believe

CHORUS

And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45 (45),
(And I'm) Swimming through the ashes of another life (another life)
(There is) No real reason to accept the way things have changed
Staring down the barrel of a 45

Oh, by the way. No... I'm not going to kill myself. Not today, not tomorrow. Not yet. There's still some answers I need to find before that happens.
