Haven't slept for days.
Staying awake for hours
Waiting for the minutes to tick by.
What more can I do until I die.
I work and work
I fake the smiles
I run for miles
I do this sober
When will all this be over.
I can't take this anymore.
I want it to end
Yet my back will always bend
For those I hold dear
I will hold back my tear.
Yet I run alone
To make sure others are smiling
I will break every bone.
I run and run for miles
I lie awake for days
I cry silently for hours
I wait for the minutes to tick on by
I truly just want to say goodbye.
