White sheets stained red in a hotel bed227Please respect copyright.PENANA2MSRTiGDb5
Skin, ice cold, lying on the bathroom floor alone227Please respect copyright.PENANAwIgjfpkT6N
Brains blown out in the shed, stone cold, dead
The basement where I cut off my breathing227Please respect copyright.PENANAmWFKEVuFW0
My bedroom where I died while I'm sleeping227Please respect copyright.PENANAGEg7IsjPWH
Empty pill bottles scattered around my room 227Please respect copyright.PENANAyKaQUrroHu
Maybe a noose, don't make it loose 227Please respect copyright.PENANAmO4aWOtE4t
Maybe even a death I didn't choose
I'm stuck with these thoughts in my head227Please respect copyright.PENANAAj8Yc6vLrg
Vivid visions invading my rest 227Please respect copyright.PENANAcTLHB4nTVb
I can't sleep because all I see is death227Please respect copyright.PENANAQK9JhTeHYa
I can't stay alive because I'm stuck in my head
I'm digging myself an early grave 227Please respect copyright.PENANA1ScoPKi9uz
Thinking about death at such an early age227Please respect copyright.PENANAV2d8hajqfR
Part of me strives for the moment when the earth lies above my head 227Please respect copyright.PENANA6R6sngJ8re
The moment I'm dead is the day I'll rest227Please respect copyright.PENANATTCBrdaeGX
No more fighting an uphill battle that never seems to end 227Please respect copyright.PENANAkTzvwtjPvK
But another part of me doesn't want to let go, doesn't want this to end227Please respect copyright.PENANAcAKWix7v7g
I want to fight to stay alive, I want to fight to "live, laugh, love" again227Please respect copyright.PENANAhAy68aZ2Dd
As corny as that is
I've tried so hard to stay alive, to stop crying227Please respect copyright.PENANAyQTEQBSm90
To cut off the memories that I live out in daily reveries227Please respect copyright.PENANAFE6bDEiBEI
The dread that they dismiss as being "all in my head"227Please respect copyright.PENANAYJ6cVzZkAq
I'm honestly tired of trying to be heard, to be lead in the right direction 227Please respect copyright.PENANA03dgRzQRqG
Because, so far, it's all dead-ends and "mental health awareness" trends227Please respect copyright.PENANAvsZ1qugjNO
Nobody actually cares until you're dead227Please respect copyright.PENANA1VLGWZibaL
Until you're another headline in the news227Please respect copyright.PENANAF83p6VcLsc
All the attention directed on you, and your grieving family who never even knew 227Please respect copyright.PENANAqnIXbhDx9K
Because they never tried to listen to you
Now they post on your page, they age and you stay the same 227Please respect copyright.PENANAFeLRh9FLGy
"I miss you today" 227Please respect copyright.PENANAQLGgyPgjNO
But they couldn't seem to feel that way when you were around227Please respect copyright.PENANAFF2sljtVRt
But they care now, 227Please respect copyright.PENANAvi3AK6L8AL
Now that your life met an abrupt end
And my "friends", 227Please respect copyright.PENANACu0OEsU9Xn
Mixed signals is all they send227Please respect copyright.PENANAndRimNVbYL
One day I matter to them 227Please respect copyright.PENANAWNgue8PJVT
And the next I'm condemned
A few months ago, I was fine227Please respect copyright.PENANA9H8Lq0r5ex
A few months ago, I felt like flying 227Please respect copyright.PENANAS5FeYWGvzk
A few months ago, I truly felt alive227Please respect copyright.PENANAwvxVTvmQnm
And a few months ago, nothing hurt...
But now, everything hurts 227Please respect copyright.PENANA6xzLRJrnT0
It's hard to explain with words,227Please respect copyright.PENANA90fhnT1Y14
How the silence kills 227Please respect copyright.PENANAGOoH3Li643
How the pain I'm in rips me to shreds 227Please respect copyright.PENANAXRohAY6rz0
How my mind's convinced me that I'm better off dead
It's impossible to count on both hands, 227Please respect copyright.PENANAAIzBlSgqja
How many people I've cut off or let go of because I convinced myself that they deserved better 227Please respect copyright.PENANAUrMOjIBjh2
And look at them now, better off without me anyhow227Please respect copyright.PENANAyYpzhqxx3l
I guess I didn't matter as much as they tried to make me believe 227Please respect copyright.PENANAvLJDMkxk6F
But even their "reassurance" were pretty little lies that they weaved like tapestries 227Please respect copyright.PENANASxpde7RF5Y
The grief from all the casualties of all of my fantasies, my wildest dreams
There's a theme within all of it227Please respect copyright.PENANAwiB1LaanQf
The little voice in my head, it screams it227Please respect copyright.PENANAnTjYVwF4vn
"This was their choice"227Please respect copyright.PENANADj9dhV0khN
And to be lonely all the time is mine227Please respect copyright.PENANAhiCg5P8KcY
All of my feelings are voiced, published publicly227Please respect copyright.PENANAtYNIXtD0nw
But they're overlooked, dismissed as fiction, a phase, lucky me...
So now my eyes, once open windows into my mind, close their curtains227Please respect copyright.PENANA27JsyLlKdA
The words on all of the pages of my open book erase as the pages are burned227Please respect copyright.PENANAzlfWy6B3BV
This is exactly what I deserve, everything I've earned after the bridges I've burned 227Please respect copyright.PENANA1TcG0ie6qB
It was never on purpose, never my intention, but I never had your attention from the start
All my wishes, sent to the stars, missed them all 227Please respect copyright.PENANAupN7GZ9Vjz
Their light flickered and died as I spent nights in my room crying227Please respect copyright.PENANAzr4pRkXSQy
I wish somebody would call227Please respect copyright.PENANAeZVzTros0N
But there's no denying that there's no point in trying
So I pour it out in my writing, daily and nightly 227Please respect copyright.PENANAW5Sb2kMRHC
But when I post these on the internet, I feel like I'm oversharing 227Please respect copyright.PENANATTJyobFXWj
And when I vent to my friends, even though they reassure me that it's fine, I feel like a burden227Please respect copyright.PENANAk7JFYC8bi3
A buzzkill, a thrill-killer 227Please respect copyright.PENANAjrzieEppVa
So I lie, saying that I'm fine 227Please respect copyright.PENANA1lHmU8BhsF
So that nobody asks questions, and nobody cries 227Please respect copyright.PENANAsbJFIKeR3m
I wanted to feel heard but nobody cared enough, nobody tried
