She’s numb Looking for something, anything To make her feel something. Every day feels the same, There’s no variety, No excitement, She’s just living for the day she will finally feel alive again. Or maybe just living for the day that she won’t live anymore. Either way, she lives. She lives for her family, She lives for her friends, She lives so that others will too. She lives. I really hope she lives. This means nothing to her anymore, This waking up, Eating, Sleeping, And repeating. It’s all just an instinct for her It no longer feels like each day is new. It no longer feels like she can live her life to the fullest. It no longer feels like she can really be truly happy. It feels like nothingness There is nothing for her here She no longer cries For it does nothing but make her feel worse She feels less anxious because what’s the point in thinking about things Nothing is real if you think about it Your brain is just playing a realistic game A game of survival A game of love and loss The game of life is tough because nobody ever wins.

Colorless, Feelingless Days
She’s numb Looking for something, anything To make her feel something. Every day feels the same, There’s no variety, No excitement, She’s just living for the day she will finally feel alive again. Or maybe just living for the day that she won’t live anymore. Either way, she lives. She lives for her family, She lives for her friends, She lives so that others will too. She lives. I really hope she lives. This means nothing to her anymore, This waking up, Eating, Sleeping, And repeating. It’s all just an instinct for her It no longer feels like each day is new. It no longer feels like she can live her life to the fullest. It no longer feels like she can really be truly happy. It feels like nothingness There is nothing for her here She no longer cries For it does nothing but make her feel worse She feels less anxious because what’s the point in thinking about things Nothing is real if you think about it Your brain is just playing a realistic game A game of survival A game of love and loss The game of life is tough because nobody ever wins.
