It came down Like a tidal wave Grasping towards the surface I couldn't reach Here I was On the train Hiding my face so patrons couldn't see I was weak I was alone I was tired I was bleak I was me He wanted to know what was wrong Why the tears I told him "It's been like this, like this for years" I say "I hate my life" at least twice a day "I always hope it's jokingly" I say But it isn't I mean it, it's meant for every second My family is aloof My friends are in the past Where I can't reach them I wear their memories like a cast "I gave my all" I exclaimed All is what they took They left what they gained My life's heading nowhere And it's getting there fast 21 years old And all I can focus on is my past Where am I going? Why am I doing all of this? I wish I knew I wouldn't be ashamed to exist One life to live And this is how I'm living mine? Time is all I've got And I've got none at the same time If it's all the same I don't want to **** myself I don't want to die But what's the point of living If you're dead inside?
