Array ( [sid] => 125133 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Darkness [time] => 2006-08-31 02:31:30 [hometext] => [bodytext] => As she sits in the middle of an empty dark room,
her life flashes in front of her,
she sees her friends,her family,her life,
she blinks and the images vanish.

Those where the times when everything was good,
before drugs,drinking and smoking caught her eye,
these were the things that ruended her life,
the things that brought the good times to an end.

As she sat there in that room dark and alone,
she thought of the times she could have ended the bad things,
she could have seen a doctor, talked to her mum,
but no she chose to live with this darkness, although she knew the bad things wouldn't change.

So instead she's sitting in that room, in a jail cell,
she was caught, now she must chose,
to live in this cell for the rest of her life or use this knife.

As she sat there thinking the sun started to rise,
she deciced and at sunrise her life was cut short,

As her spirit left her body she asked herself if it was right.
Did I make the right choice?
Should I have taken the knife to my heart?

Her Flag was let down and it anounced the end of her time on earth.

As she sits in the middle of an empty dark room,
her life flashes in front of her,
she sees her friends,her family,her life,
she blinks and the images vanish.

these were the things that ruended her life,
the things that brought the good times to an end.

Her Flag was let down and it anounced the end of her time on earth.
