I force my tears to fall By hearing sorrowful music I empathized with others Just to subside my own feelings I know I'm so pathetic But you would feel the same If you were in my place The numbness grows wilder The more I hold it within They ask me why I'm sad Even when there is nothing I know I'm cribbing over this life that could have been worse I know I'm so pathetic But you would feel the same If you were in my place I wish they could understand That nothingness can be all the reason I take a deep breath I do it all over again Seems like I'm stuck In a loop that never ends I know it's a choice But for some it isn't I know I'm so pathetic But you would feel the same If you were in my place This unending despair This hollow feeling Of emptiness consumes me Spreading like ink On a wet sheet Leaving a stain Making it bleak Hard to distinguish Everything seems blurry I know I'm so pathetic But you would feel the same if you were in my place. My dreams are now nothing But nightmares My expectations are nothing But false hopes I'm walking with burden Not mine to carry Even the little air I take Struggles to be free I know I'm so pathetic But you would feel the same Only if you were in my place.

I force my tears to fall By hearing sorrowful music I empathized with others Just to subside my own feelings I know I'm so pathetic But you would feel the same If you were in my place The numbness grows wilder The more I hold it within They ask me why I'm sad Even when there is nothing I know I'm cribbing over this life that could have been worse I know I'm so pathetic But you would feel the same If you were in my place I wish they could understand That nothingness can be all the reason I take a deep breath I do it all over again Seems like I'm stuck In a loop that never ends I know it's a choice But for some it isn't I know I'm so pathetic But you would feel the same If you were in my place This unending despair This hollow feeling Of emptiness consumes me Spreading like ink On a wet sheet Leaving a stain Making it bleak Hard to distinguish Everything seems blurry I know I'm so pathetic But you would feel the same if you were in my place. My dreams are now nothing But nightmares My expectations are nothing But false hopes I'm walking with burden Not mine to carry Even the little air I take Struggles to be free I know I'm so pathetic But you would feel the same Only if you were in my place.
