Everything hurts

My heart can’t take it - I can feel it burst
I’m struck by lightning
and everything’s dark
I’m stuck and I’m lost and I’m drowning
I’m hand tied at the bottom and I can’t get up
The sound of people around me is making my heart erupt
I said I’m stuck
And I’m saying it hurts
So when people talks I just wish they would shut up
I’ve shut down
There’s nothing left of me

The life that I’m living is no longer mine
I’ve given my all for too many times
Instead of feeling good I wanna commit a crime
Or maybe it’s not a crime if it’s your own soul you want to end?
Maybe I’ll be pardoned as there’s nothing left to mend
I’ve bent over backwards, I’m all twisted out
Not even my own voice can help me to shout

I’m drained and I’m empty

This life is not mine

Phoebe says it best

”Not mine, not mine, not mine
And even if I was happy, okay and skipping, I’d hear
Not not mine, not not mine, not not mine”

This life that I’m living is no longer mine
