White sheets stained red in a hotel bed249Please respect copyright.PENANAzzpiRJt8PO
Skin, ice cold, lying on the bathroom floor alone249Please respect copyright.PENANAZmpxwaqrmq
Brains blown out in the shed, stone cold, dead
The basement where I cut off my breathing249Please respect copyright.PENANAEgb3WPmonp
My bedroom where I died while I'm sleeping249Please respect copyright.PENANAqccDdbTKgv
Empty pill bottles scattered around my room 249Please respect copyright.PENANA2BzYIRSCgr
Maybe a noose, don't make it loose 249Please respect copyright.PENANAziWDdz6Oek
Maybe even a death I didn't choose
I'm stuck with these thoughts in my head249Please respect copyright.PENANAoGmSW9COI6
Vivid visions invading my rest 249Please respect copyright.PENANAz1SfQcaOnr
I can't sleep because all I see is death249Please respect copyright.PENANAFn3Ybx76C9
I can't stay alive because I'm stuck in my head
I'm digging myself an early grave 249Please respect copyright.PENANARr9ixdgfVR
Thinking about death at such an early age249Please respect copyright.PENANAd6aGGa3u5U
Part of me strives for the moment when the earth lies above my head 249Please respect copyright.PENANAohYa2eXVc7
The moment I'm dead is the day I'll rest249Please respect copyright.PENANA6GObryxZbm
No more fighting an uphill battle that never seems to end 249Please respect copyright.PENANASZGTdsypiu
But another part of me doesn't want to let go, doesn't want this to end249Please respect copyright.PENANAXZg04VzEZW
I want to fight to stay alive, I want to fight to "live, laugh, love" again249Please respect copyright.PENANASxYqo9Jzuk
As corny as that is
I've tried so hard to stay alive, to stop crying249Please respect copyright.PENANAywQRKLlbIf
To cut off the memories that I live out in daily reveries249Please respect copyright.PENANAOERBMWDP2U
The dread that they dismiss as being "all in my head"249Please respect copyright.PENANAB3VOf9sQUT
I'm honestly tired of trying to be heard, to be lead in the right direction 249Please respect copyright.PENANATToHFYe8St
Because, so far, it's all dead-ends and "mental health awareness" trends249Please respect copyright.PENANA5gKyp51sSY
Nobody actually cares until you're dead249Please respect copyright.PENANADdYg6ivoXb
Until you're another headline in the news249Please respect copyright.PENANAkCuchCHYIn
All the attention directed on you, and your grieving family who never even knew 249Please respect copyright.PENANAhzAKGEZKdo
Because they never tried to listen to you
Now they post on your page, they age and you stay the same 249Please respect copyright.PENANAblOdRfjcns
"I miss you today" 249Please respect copyright.PENANAbbkUCG0hXa
But they couldn't seem to feel that way when you were around249Please respect copyright.PENANAOcHGM3m6uR
But they care now, 249Please respect copyright.PENANArywvalVmdF
Now that your life met an abrupt end
And my "friends", 249Please respect copyright.PENANAjNSh1Ml7oe
Mixed signals is all they send249Please respect copyright.PENANAwU3Uwd6TGO
One day I matter to them 249Please respect copyright.PENANAKYi74OfD00
And the next I'm condemned
A few months ago, I was fine249Please respect copyright.PENANAkoNXZfxyFJ
A few months ago, I felt like flying 249Please respect copyright.PENANAqY0JKwFr6X
A few months ago, I truly felt alive249Please respect copyright.PENANAaMC9imZjYL
And a few months ago, nothing hurt...
But now, everything hurts 249Please respect copyright.PENANAGmvGwUJQSE
It's hard to explain with words,249Please respect copyright.PENANAmxUNzrqY6H
How the silence kills 249Please respect copyright.PENANA5mbzL0uMOS
How the pain I'm in rips me to shreds 249Please respect copyright.PENANAUUPTUzDbcQ
How my mind's convinced me that I'm better off dead
It's impossible to count on both hands, 249Please respect copyright.PENANA9wT89KcE5n
How many people I've cut off or let go of because I convinced myself that they deserved better 249Please respect copyright.PENANAywkAWh6Pt7
And look at them now, better off without me anyhow249Please respect copyright.PENANAdVG6FStoil
I guess I didn't matter as much as they tried to make me believe 249Please respect copyright.PENANAIqLUz8xRxr
But even their "reassurance" were pretty little lies that they weaved like tapestries 249Please respect copyright.PENANAP9IPYGRtLf
The grief from all the casualties of all of my fantasies, my wildest dreams
There's a theme within all of it249Please respect copyright.PENANAlNbJMvtWg7
The little voice in my head, it screams it249Please respect copyright.PENANAQtzT93C56H
"This was their choice"249Please respect copyright.PENANAuar9xwFbfY
And to be lonely all the time is mine249Please respect copyright.PENANAOrOgi3r0JJ
All of my feelings are voiced, published publicly249Please respect copyright.PENANAIq2e2Pv0C3
But they're overlooked, dismissed as fiction, a phase, lucky me...
So now my eyes, once open windows into my mind, close their curtains249Please respect copyright.PENANAcP58Ymmpyr
The words on all of the pages of my open book erase as the pages are burned249Please respect copyright.PENANAV0Ubduaxle
This is exactly what I deserve, everything I've earned after the bridges I've burned 249Please respect copyright.PENANAy6QPkMvK3K
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 249Please respect copyright.PENANAzA6ov2j3cw
Their light flickered and died as I spent nights in my room crying249Please respect copyright.PENANAViE6y5eiBt
I wish somebody would call249Please respect copyright.PENANAOV5xbJjU7i
But there's no denying that there's no point in trying
So I pour it out in my writing, daily and nightly 249Please respect copyright.PENANAD5SmYvNZBa
But when I post these on the internet, I feel like I'm oversharing 249Please respect copyright.PENANAxQnzZddCPd
And when I vent to my friends, even though they reassure me that it's fine, I feel like a burden249Please respect copyright.PENANAUA9kE2oc6X
A buzzkill, a thrill-killer 249Please respect copyright.PENANA27s1PqRYzP
So I lie, saying that I'm fine 249Please respect copyright.PENANA6dHRNrqh8K
So that nobody asks questions, and nobody cries 249Please respect copyright.PENANAEqQ6sxpNNu
I wanted to feel heard but nobody cared enough, nobody tried
