Everyday I want to die,
but here I am staying alive...
And why?
Why not just die?
Give up on everything I know?
Forget about all the things I have to show?

All for one selfish wish I have,
to end my life,
to erase my past?
I'm not alive 'cause I want to be alive,
I keep breathing because you keep me here.

Just because I love you,
because you love me,
You make me love me.
But you don't want me.
I wrote this a long time ago, and I felt like sharing.
