The Crime
I murder myself everyday
I hurt and hide away
The world is such a cruel place, but I make it crueler
If I can’t bare the cold then why do I make it colder
They say the punishment must fit the crime
But I cough up a hundred dollars for stealin’ a dime
I do my time and then some
Oh dear, what have I done?
My jailer is myself
I think I lost my mental health
The punishment is built into the crime
At least that’s how it works with mine
Carma is the end all be all
But mine never ends
They say the punishment must fit the crime
But I’m still here doin’ my time
