I have such good friends A family who loves me to death A house and a home and a heart that beats But I'm so empty
It starts with a click Nails on my phone screen Reading that text Again and again The beginning of the fall
My room starts getting messy I start writing less Lunches pile up on my desk I get used to feeling hungry again I still list my songs before bed Falling asleep in my sweatpants Clothes piled on a chair So high it's practically an entity A guardian of my depression Watching me fall
I still talk to my friends I still smile when I read And laugh at old shows But it's harder now And I ache when it's over Deeper than before
It's not my worst ever But if I had a bottle of pills I'd drink them down painfully After much deliberation Life is so painful and lonely When you're failing ever so slowly Withdrawing and crawling Deeper in your hole It's so dark down here Yet I loathe the light I take the perfect life I have And flush it away Watch it drain Then scoop up the dregs And mourn it Like I wasn't the one who made me Forever lonely Forever and always
