Please don't **** yourself tonight.
Maybe you're tired of seeing the same faces everyday.
Maybe those faces don't care.
Maybe waking up is a task.
And you're tired of putting on the mask.

Maybe I'm no one to tell you,
And maybe you don't care anymore.
But look inside,
And ask yourself
Despite everything, wouldn't I miss myself?

Wouldn't I miss the mirror smiling back at me?
Wouldn't I miss singing at the top of my lungs in the shower?
Wouldn't I miss listening to my favorite song?
Wouldn't I miss talking to myself like I'm my best friend?
Wouldn't I miss having me everywhere I went?

Isn't that enough? Having you? You're the only one you've always had.
Will always have.
And that is never a bad thing. Please don't abandon yourself.
If you cant see it right away,
Look deeper. You know you love having you around.

Don't do it. For you.
