In this World that Comes and Goes
With your eyes closed its almost like you're sleeping
But you skin pales, darkness is creeping
A pill bottle lays empty beside your bed
A rueful letter lies sealed beside your head
A frozen mother stares at your bedroom door
Before falling unconscious to the floor
The kids at school, they had their fun
Now they're disgusted at what the have done
Hearts break, regret flows
In this world that comes and goes
