Richard Hung Himself

The needles were stabbed in to the walls

The executioner's curtain call

Fighting back, he found his life drowning

And there was no way out

Cause Richard hung himself, Richard hung himself

It happened just the other day

Jesus come and pushed him off the shelf

He thought he'd find a better way than

Shooting and stealing, and slamming, and dying

The death who wears black curtains, wears clothes, what's right?

The roof kicked out, the rope tied to the rafters

A quick kick of the chair and it was all through

If Richie only knew

Cause Richard hung himself, Richard hung himself

It happened just the other day

Jesus come and push him off the shelf

He thought he found a better way

His life suddenly flashed!

Right before his eyes

What a swingin' guy

Turning grey with mold

This is how he died

Give it up, give it up, throw your lives away

Boiling acid bath

Pulmonary wrath

Feel the pulling surge

It won't let you go

Throw it all away, throw your life away

Throw it all a-, throw it all a-

Throw it all away

Swingin' in his room, Richard won't come out to play

Cause Richie hung himself the other day

Oh, how the world seems to fly by

Is death the final high?

Cause Richard hung himself, Richard hung himself

It happened just the other day

Jesus come and push him off the shelf

He thought he found a better way by

Ripping and tearing, and lying and dying, abusing and using

And screaming and crying, and stealing and cheating

And needing, bleeding and taking the body God gave to you

To do worthless shitty heroine

Destroying everything you earned

Sinking deeper and deeper into depression

Needing more and more

Killing yourself from within

Suicide, what do I do?

Die

(Richard hung himself)

Cause Richard hung himself

Cause Richard hung himself

Cause Richard hung himself

Cause Richard hung himself

Cause Richard hung himself

Cause Richard hung himself

Cause Richard hung himself

Your answer is non-sequitur
