Precious One

I know your messed up mind. I know you're dreaming of the suicide.
You're in bed with a gun, waiting on Heaven to save you.
I only walked half a mile before I changed my mind.

I know your messed up mind. I know you're dreaming of the suicide.
You're in bed with a gun, waiting on Heaven to save you.
Who's the deciding vote? I'm watching you through a window.
I got a four letter word, I'm gonna give you for free.
