White sheets stained red in a hotel bed205Please respect copyright.PENANAIPDTN88ROl
Skin, ice cold, lying on the bathroom floor alone205Please respect copyright.PENANA8B2jw9Yr4M
Brains blown out in the shed, stone cold, dead
The basement where I cut off my breathing205Please respect copyright.PENANAQMseM7FAmc
My bedroom where I died while I'm sleeping205Please respect copyright.PENANAbBRx8TmT8u
Empty pill bottles scattered around my room 205Please respect copyright.PENANAKWchGnrwOL
Maybe a noose, don't make it loose 205Please respect copyright.PENANA49L5Uclvdj
Maybe even a death I didn't choose
I'm stuck with these thoughts in my head205Please respect copyright.PENANAOKXxIAtzSC
Vivid visions invading my rest 205Please respect copyright.PENANAhtsRuBauIt
I can't sleep because all I see is death205Please respect copyright.PENANABd07mNxWr0
I can't stay alive because I'm stuck in my head
I'm digging myself an early grave 205Please respect copyright.PENANAJ548nkNFjS
Thinking about death at such an early age205Please respect copyright.PENANA1eZWdkjPxY
Part of me strives for the moment when the earth lies above my head 205Please respect copyright.PENANAJxbZi6SDB4
The moment I'm dead is the day I'll rest205Please respect copyright.PENANAdXQDI7Y33d
No more fighting an uphill battle that never seems to end 205Please respect copyright.PENANANvYx93jijy
But another part of me doesn't want to let go, doesn't want this to end205Please respect copyright.PENANAdMiHG6CCyF
I want to fight to stay alive, I want to fight to "live, laugh, love" again205Please respect copyright.PENANA5eum78hj7c
As corny as that is
I've tried so hard to stay alive, to stop crying205Please respect copyright.PENANA7OxWezFlt0
To cut off the memories that I live out in daily reveries205Please respect copyright.PENANAUY6jdo2Ngb
The dread that they dismiss as being "all in my head"205Please respect copyright.PENANAzbsWsc5Q5J
I'm honestly tired of trying to be heard, to be lead in the right direction 205Please respect copyright.PENANAh8FJyW9t3S
Because, so far, it's all dead-ends and "mental health awareness" trends205Please respect copyright.PENANAKCY1DbKOWp
Nobody actually cares until you're dead205Please respect copyright.PENANA6ILRkevDNq
Until you're another headline in the news205Please respect copyright.PENANA9shcXdjsqx
All the attention directed on you, and your grieving family who never even knew 205Please respect copyright.PENANA4VaWPSevhc
Because they never tried to listen to you
Now they post on your page, they age and you stay the same 205Please respect copyright.PENANAOxNmAKFxYZ
"I miss you today" 205Please respect copyright.PENANAhaPKe6CEWM
But they couldn't seem to feel that way when you were around205Please respect copyright.PENANArKRGdnxvbo
But they care now, 205Please respect copyright.PENANAOuQ64nxWbp
Now that your life met an abrupt end
And my "friends", 205Please respect copyright.PENANAEAiMUrMJyU
Mixed signals is all they send205Please respect copyright.PENANACVDtcl0XSi
One day I matter to them 205Please respect copyright.PENANAn8PhbmtuUs
And the next I'm condemned
A few months ago, I was fine205Please respect copyright.PENANAN0nKmFJkIo
A few months ago, I felt like flying 205Please respect copyright.PENANAfC2LCMsUjY
A few months ago, I truly felt alive205Please respect copyright.PENANAhuz13oDPGS
And a few months ago, nothing hurt...
But now, everything hurts 205Please respect copyright.PENANA0YOD6eMkji
It's hard to explain with words,205Please respect copyright.PENANAXzts6WG0ZJ
How the silence kills 205Please respect copyright.PENANAp0IWaPw0H1
How the pain I'm in rips me to shreds 205Please respect copyright.PENANAqjVmIk539r
How my mind's convinced me that I'm better off dead
It's impossible to count on both hands, 205Please respect copyright.PENANAFc9PBlf9zd
How many people I've cut off or let go of because I convinced myself that they deserved better 205Please respect copyright.PENANAJYizwC4IEk
And look at them now, better off without me anyhow205Please respect copyright.PENANA3H7w7WFBFd
I guess I didn't matter as much as they tried to make me believe 205Please respect copyright.PENANAAix6IJL24I
But even their "reassurance" were pretty little lies that they weaved like tapestries 205Please respect copyright.PENANAgAo3mJpIf5
The grief from all the casualties of all of my fantasies, my wildest dreams
There's a theme within all of it205Please respect copyright.PENANA9x8hgYbFxG
The little voice in my head, it screams it205Please respect copyright.PENANAc89Dk7lQsn
"This was their choice"205Please respect copyright.PENANAKUEkRINUet
And to be lonely all the time is mine205Please respect copyright.PENANA3RN9aQkkrw
All of my feelings are voiced, published publicly205Please respect copyright.PENANAleHAEjoJWZ
But they're overlooked, dismissed as fiction, a phase, lucky me...
So now my eyes, once open windows into my mind, close their curtains205Please respect copyright.PENANA8DJP1sBDNt
The words on all of the pages of my open book erase as the pages are burned205Please respect copyright.PENANA14IuYZUGcz
This is exactly what I deserve, everything I've earned after the bridges I've burned 205Please respect copyright.PENANAV3ksgtFMYl
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 205Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3uN4wrxvI
Their light flickered and died as I spent nights in my room crying205Please respect copyright.PENANAwDhXIKqRHp
I wish somebody would call205Please respect copyright.PENANAtugvpRgABk
But there's no denying that there's no point in trying
So I pour it out in my writing, daily and nightly 205Please respect copyright.PENANApslngqyX9H
But when I post these on the internet, I feel like I'm oversharing 205Please respect copyright.PENANA74uqaWZjKP
And when I vent to my friends, even though they reassure me that it's fine, I feel like a burden205Please respect copyright.PENANAOX0WSrUYhj
A buzzkill, a thrill-killer 205Please respect copyright.PENANAxh4F4Eyk5a
So I lie, saying that I'm fine 205Please respect copyright.PENANAwKT1OQjElx
So that nobody asks questions, and nobody cries 205Please respect copyright.PENANA7Qt07mtyoC
I wanted to feel heard but nobody cared enough, nobody tried
