It was the saddest moment of my life
and I can't cry
I just can't

It was the saddest moment of my life
and I'm just lying on my bed
From morning till night

It was the saddest moment of my life
and I can't hate you
It was the saddest moment of my life
and you are not here

My demons, my shadows
Whatever you might call it
My darkness, the abyss
Is eating me alive

Storms raging through my mind
Crying for help
Crying for shelter
For what I needed most I cannot find

It was all happening inside of me
A sky,darker than black
Pain that somehow stopped the clock
and some part of me died

I stopped crying for help
As waters from the deep ocean flooded my lungs
But I can still breathe
But I still can live

I was dead
But my body is moving
Wearing a fake face
With a grin on it

I was dead
But I was still talking
Somewhat hiding from people
For I was afraid to show my scars

I was dead
But I was still thinking
Thinking if I disappear
Will they cheer?

But the sad thing is,
Every single day was my saddest moment of my life
Every single day I wanted to die
Every single day I wanted to cry
But every single day
I just can't
