What I Gave Myself
i give myself cancer
one wish at a time
i give myself answers
one question at a time
i made myself blind before i could see
i stared at the sun and though it was fun it wasn't the best for me
and what i had done to hurt myself was not the way i dreamed
it made me sick, and it came too quick, and as i had tried to scream
and my clock was saying tic-toc but i didn't hear it chime
to tell the toll, i fall and roll, and missed it in my mind
and as i drank and took a sip i left myself open set
and what i deserve is key, for being me, and so is my regret
i gave myself cancer and it led me away
and as i sit in my life i wish it away
straight from my beginning, and unto clay
i turned myself off starting that day
