The Answers You Find Will Kill You

The Answers You Find Will Kill You

A Poem by Travis Prino

Come awake in a hospital bed

it will remind you of what you did

how can you always be so selfish?

what could make you always feel so worthless?

you won't be able to forget with those scars

all the times that you slipped too far

and everyone that was by your side

won't stick around just to watch you die


close your eyes

to the questions in your mind

cause the answers that you find

will kill you

close your eyes

to the questions in your mind

cause the answers that you find

will kill you


come awake on the bathroom floor

this seems eerily familiar to before

how did you let things get this bad?

what could possibly make you feel so sad?

cause every time you stand you fall again

making you think you're better off dead

you won't be able to leave these thoughts behind

you're finding release in this suicide


close your eyes

to the questions in your mind

cause the answers that you find

will kill you

close your eyes

to the questions in your mind

cause the answers that you find

will kill you


you try so hard to make it out alive

but you're torn apart by the answers you find

you try so hard to make it out alive

but you're torn apart by the answers you find

you try so hard to make it out alive

but you're torn apart by the answers you find

you try so hard to make it out alive

but you're torn apart by the answers you find


close your eyes

to the questions in your mind

cause the answers that you find

will kill you

close your eyes

to the questions in your mind

cause the answers that you find

will kill you

will kill you


they've killed you, you're gone.

Just a little caveat to my writing, 95% of what I write are lyrics so excuse the length and repetition and don't be deterred by that. Hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment. more..
