I sat atop that ocean wall
Just wanting to end it all
Wondering how far the fall
Then I heard the ocean call
Late at night
Couldn't see a thing
Wondering what this would bring
I heard her there
Standing where I could not see
The one I wanted for eternity
I knew she was not there
But that did not cause despair
I let my eyes close
For I stepped into the dream
For the reality I couldn't see
The one with just you and me
As I jumped into the sea
Finally happy

I was raised in a loveless silence
Many days filled with violence
With no on by my side
I grew up wide eyed
In the shadow I couldn't see
What was truly missing
Not knowing what was supposed to be normal
Not knowing love
Or affection
Just being alone
All on her own
That little girl
That was forgotten by the world
And raised herself in the dark
Not knowing the true light
Not knowing love
She couldn't trust anyone
Not even herself
The things she saw
What she heard
Would break any child
And she lived believing it
It was normal to be broken
By the ones supposed to protect her
And help her grow
She couldn't get away
Until the one day she ran away

Im just some girl the world forget
Left in her own mind to rot
Her mind was so distraught
She couldn't think a single thought
Instead they all swarmed around
All trying to make her drown
She couldn't hear a single sound
As much as she tried screaming out
The voices inside won't go out
Leaving her to cry inside
Not even safe
from her own mind
Everything just wanted her
To
Die

Every hour on the hour
Maybe so much more
Don't cower on the floor
Open up the ******* door
To the world you wanna explore
Finding so much more
Finding someone worth fighting for
So living won't be a chore
As long as you open the door

Takin pills
Trying to sleep
Because I overthink
I wanna drink
I wanna waste it all away
Just wanna forget today
Just wanna be okay
But hey
I'm just gonna sleep it all away
And deal with it another day
Alex Aug 2019
I saw the flashing lights
Ignored the warning signs
I let the world burn
As I closed my eyes
And walked away
Not caring about today
Or tomorrow
Or ever
Because it just won't matter now
For better
Or worse
What's done is done

Why
The way you said goodbye
Reminds me just how to cry
Why do you lie
Why can't I sleep
I wanna forget you
with all my might
And the way I felt that night
I fell so hard for you
I just don't know what to do
But to push it aside
Push it way
Forever more
Now that you opened that door
