Have you ever been
Lonely inside a crowd?
Or have you ever wanted
To just scream out loud?
Have you ever thought
About suicide,
Until the negativity
Within you finally died?

Have you ever found yourself
In such a dark space?
That you wanted to abandon,
The human race?
Have you ever been
Crushed by your own fears
That you found yourself
Drowning in your own te

Have you ever thought about,
What’s coming next?
Or has contemplation
Just left you complexed?
Have you ever been on,
Such a downward spiral?
That your melancholy,
Seemed like it went viral?

Have you ever found yourself
In such a dark space?
That you wanted to abandon,
The human race?
Have you ever been
Crushed by your own fears
That you found yourself
Drowning in your own tears
