Here I hold in my hands
A gift I held for you
But I cant open it, my friend
This bow is for you alone to pull

Inside lies the gun
Sit there and adore
Now shoot me and let it be done
So I can be no more

Other may give candy and flowers
But my gift will last for endless hours
I know you cant get passed this rainy weather
But once Im gone, the sun will come
And everything will be better

Ill give you heartless pain
And never stopping tears
I%u2019m the hate that clogs your veins
And the nightmares that you fear
You dont want me here
So please don%u2019t keep me too near

Trust me
You dont want someone like me
Im not who you think I am
I cant make you understand
How much I lie with hopeless faith
Get away before its too late

Other may give candy and flowers
But my gift will last for endless hours
I know you cant get passed this rainy weather
But once Im gone, the sun will come
And everything will be better

I try never to complain
But they come so refined
Hoping my burdens will never rain
On those I hold so dear
But truth is Ill make you cry
With my hopeless lies

Please don%u2019t listen to a beggar like me
Im too pathetic to be a human being
Im nothing but a child
Walking in mommys shoes
Trying not to cry
And to be older just for you
But I trip and fall
And begin to crawl

Other may give candy and flowers
But my gift will last for endless hours
I know you cant get passed this rainy weather
But once Im gone, the sun will come
And everything will be better

Ill give you heartless pain
And never stopping tears
Im the hate that clogs your veins
And the nightmares that you fear
You dont want me here
So please dont keep me too near

My friend cant you see?
Youre suffering
And its all because of me
So let me please
Itll be done, quick and fast
And then youll be happy at last

Other may give candy and flowers
But my gift will last for endless hours
I know you cant get passed this rainy weather
But once Im gone, the sun will come
And then trust me, everything will be better
