These nights I stay awake are killing me

These lies I start to say are filling me

Up with depression and it’s peeling me

Down to my most hated self and it’s stripping me

To my darkest self with my darkest thoughts

What would you do if you were really me?

Would you make better decisions than silly me?

Or would you stay in the darkness where it’s hard to breathe?

Would you hold the light like comfort when it’s hard to sleep?

Or would you let the darkness take you

To sleep
  
Forever
