Empty Shell
I’m too tired to be mad
I’m too angry to be sad
Where does that leave me?
Alone and confused
Nothing to live for, just a bottle of *****
If anger doesn’t **** me
Sadness surely will
Time to give up, grab that bottle of pills
I finally wake up in the drab familiar room
Not the first time here, I’ve returned to my doom
I can barely breathe, and I cannot move
All I can see is a tangled web of tubes
Keeping me alive
I wonder what for
Someone had found me
Face down on the floor
I’ll eventually get out of this place
Back to my life, it’s too much to face
It’s time I leave this empty shell
I need to get out of this endless hell
Next time I will get it right
I’m waiting to embrace that soothing bright light
