What is the point? Nothing makes sense anymore.
These scars from days gone by
And my blackened eye
What were they for? I can't even remember who I am.

All I can remember is sitting on my couch
Clutching a picture of you to my chest
I can remember the tears streaming from my eyes
And singing the Suicide Lullaby.

The days go by in a blur. I can't even remember who you are.
Everything in my life seems so fake and unreal
My life feels like a dream made of plastics and synthetics
Who am I? Where am I? I can't even remember my age.

All I can remember is sitting on my couch
The knife held to my neck as the beat took over
I can remember the blood spilling from my arms
As I sung the Suicide Lullaby.

Nothing left to live for. My blackened eyes and shattered heart.
Who left me in such a mess I couldn't even remember waking up?
Day after day is the same, the same song playing in my head like a curse.
Over and over again I reply the same thing and...

All I can remember is sitting on my couch, or was it my bed?
Begging for this pain to end as the knife dug into my skin
Now, what was that song I was singing?
Oh yeah, I was singing the Suicide Lullaby.

Nothing left to live for as I destroy my own dreams and hopes.
Were they really my dreams? Or a mirage like the rest of my life?
I can't remember anything. What am I? What was my purpose?
Was it you that called and broke the spell?

All I can remember is sitting on the couch, or was that my bed?
The phone held in my shaky and bloodied hands and pressed to my ear.
Your voice mirrored mine, frightened and shaky and what was that playing?
Was that the Suicide Lullaby you were playing in your room?

Dropping the knife and breaking down into sobs.
You are the reason I live, now I remember everything.
I am yours and I remember what I live for.
I live for you.

All I can remember is that wonderful warm bed.
Your voice gently telling me everything was all right.
But you can too late everything was fading into darkness
And as I slowly faded I sang the Suicide Lullaby just for you.

Nothing kept hidden...
