Tonight

Copyright, Mandi Marie

Took a look at myself in the mirror
Couldn’t find a reason to be happy with what I see
I see the scars of my past, and
There’s no need to make it last.

chorus
Tonight I thought about the death of my spirit,
Tonight suicide dangerously crossed my mind,
Tonight my anger passed the line,
Oh, tonight my shame prevailed.

People have these conlcusions they draw about me
They don’t seem to understand
How can that be, when all I see is me,
Even though I see it unclearly.

chorus
Tonight I thought about the death of my spirit,
Tonight suicide dangerously crossed my mind,
Tonight my anger passed the line,
Oh, tonight my shame prevailed.

The scars on the outside, they’ll eventually heal.
The scars on the inside, they’ll always remain real.

chorus
Tonight I thought about the death of my spirit,
Tonight suicide dangerously crossed my mind,
Tonight my anger passed the line,
Oh, tonight my shame prevailed.

Took another drop on the bottle,
Cluthched my blade like a throttle
Watched the blood trickle down,
As I fall to the ground (fall to the ground)

chorus
Tonight I thought about the death of my spirit,
Tonight suicide dangerously crossed my mind,
Tonight my anger passed the line,
Oh, tonight my shame prevailed.
