Too much to Live for

Suicidal?
Moi? Please...
Do I look it?
Hair's combed
clean shaved, nice clothes
toothy grin painted on
permanent ink
Go to work, small talk
They tell me through smoke
How hung over they are
Drank himself silly
And why not?
He is not suicidal
Of course not
Broken relationships
Out on a bender now
Sleeping with any
that turn a sympathetic sighhhhhhhh
That's not suicidal
Might be murder...
Speeding down the freeway
Late for a meeting
Pray he makes it
It's not like he has a chance
of dying...
Stop for a bite
It's been almost an hour
Quick, fast, fix
Heartattack
Diet soda
Nevermind the scars
Nevermind the pills
can't hide it
don't even care
But I'm not suicidal
Now pass it over here
