I always seem to go through stages of sadness One situation leads to multiple crashes Splashes of disasters Walls closing in No air Too far to swim I know they never last But always come back They take hold of my life And tonight I shut the world out Forgive me for what I may blurt out I can say I'm not happy That my life is ****** I can take what I've learned And grow from it, I am sure I don't really know what else to say My feelings are spinning today Hit fast forward Don't need a replay I need to get away To a place That appreciates who I am My friends all know me as the brave one What's so brave about telling the world you're the gay one My family doesn't understand me I can never make them happy We barley agree on what to eat for dinner Let alone whether I have the right to marry I feel very alone Have lots of friends by my side But sometimes I don't want to be alive I'll throw my phone at the wall Contemplate who I am If you saw inside me maybe you'd understand But until then I'll express myself the best way I know how And for now I'll stare at my ceiling Until I fall fast asleep and dream about a perfect place for you and me My alarm will go off I will be alive No suicide I'll just prioritize Until I am finally happy
