Through early morning fog I see,

Visions of the things to be,

The pains that are withheld for me,

I realize and I can see...

[REFRAIN]:

suicide is painless.

It brings on many changes.

I can take or leave it if I please.

I try to find a way to make,

All our little joys relate,

Without that ever-present hate,

But now I know that it's too late, and...

[REFRAIN]

The game of life is hard to play,

I'm gonna lose it anyway.

The losing card I'll someday lay,

So this is all I have to say.

[REFRAIN]

The only way to win is cheat,

And lay it down before I'm beat,

And to another give my seat,

For that's the only painless feat.

[REFRAIN]

The sword of time will pierce our skins.

It doesn't hurt when it begins.

But as it works its way on in,

The pain grows stronger...watch it grin, but...

[REFRAIN]

A brave man once requested me,

to answer questions that are key.

Is it to be or not to be?

And I replied 'Oh why ask me?'

[REFRAIN]

'Cause suicide is painless.

It brings on many changes.

And I can take or leave it if I please.

...And you can do the same thing if you choose.
