The grimness of our lives
That dim look in our eyes
Everything so overwhelming
Makes us feel like it's all ending
The ***** looks that we despise
The voices like to stay disguised
The comments want to make us cry
All we want is to end our lives
Another 'friend', another lie
Spewing sugar-coated fiction
Makes us turn to nicotine
Stupid cigarette addictions
We’ve lost our soul mates in the fire
Our hearts and minds are causing friction
Another cut - another burn
Another step towards eviction
Another pill, another bottle,
Headed in the wrong direction
Another gun, another bullet,
All it takes is one bad second
**** the gun, pull the trigger,
And all this of this could be ended
It’s a shame but what to do?
Some broken hearts just can't be mended.
