tell me it will be fine
say anything at all
i'm always listening to you
but do you hear me?

when i whisper i can't
my mind echoes with i give up
do you hear me cry at night?
tear-soaked sleep

i dare not dream of waking up
to face another drowsy day
where it hurts to get up
and be who i'm supposed to be

with all the giggle and the laughter
a pinhead of light in a flood of dark
but when i burn out
who will brighten the night for me?

i wait for a flicker
but the darkness continues to suffocate
after all of my sacrifice
will no one come to save me

i'm just so sad
it's like i forgot how to be anything else
it consumes me
there's nothing to want when i don't have what i need

please
just find me
release me
I CAN'T ******* BREATHE
what's wrong with me
why can't i just be happy
