Every moment that goes by
I feel stressed
I feel weighted down
This life is stressful
All i want to be free
But i let myself down
I’m open
I’m not okay
This life i am living is not okay
How do i live with myself
Maybe i should accept my fate if suicide

Do you hear me
Can you see me
I’m not happy
I’m not free
This love you give is grand
But what comes with is far too harsh
I feel crushed beneath my own body weight
Laying squished while reaching out
You pet my hair and say you love me
All this is worth it apparently
But how am I to love back if I am dead

Alone in this cage
You’ve built it strong
I’ve been banging on the bars
Wishing someone would hear me
If only to stretch my brittle body
All the things I could do
Be myself, See myself
My mind is drawn back to the present
Each chip in the paint
Every single dent in the floor
When will I be released
Will I ever get to soar

What a place to be
Lifting my head
Thinking of the sun
Dreaming of the moon
There are few glimmers of hope
But all fades to nothing
I’m standing here knocking
Wanting, waiting
Just let me out and Let me live
I’ve had enough of this
It’s dark and unforgiving

The world revolves
I feel so small
What a place to be
About to fall
If only my silence could be a voice
Instead I’m left with a choice
My mind could win
Not sure how to stop it
How do I survive
With no will to live

Wondering down a hallway
Everything seems to be the same
Slowly it fades
Further and further away
Plain dark walls become normal
Colors once had my interest
Hard to remember why
This is life now
Let’s follow the darkness
Who am I
Who was I
Doesn’t seem to matter

They see my smiles
They see my eyes
They see my act
If only they knew the truth
That’d be a surprise
Not a single ounce of truth outside
But deep with in I’m barely alive
Wishing it was easy
Wishing I could be happy
But instead here I am
Hiding behind my own two eyes

— The End —
