White sheets stained red in a hotel bed351Please respect copyright.PENANAQq1LyOrgzm
Skin, ice cold, lying on the bathroom floor alone351Please respect copyright.PENANAEs3t3HNuhA
Brains blown out in the shed, stone cold, dead
The basement where I cut off my breathing351Please respect copyright.PENANAJoLZ45Q8wW
My bedroom where I died while I'm sleeping351Please respect copyright.PENANAsx8BC3MoXA
Empty pill bottles scattered around my room 351Please respect copyright.PENANAywkXIYmLCR
Maybe a noose, don't make it loose 351Please respect copyright.PENANAOtEpB0eakX
Maybe even a death I didn't choose
I'm stuck with these thoughts in my head351Please respect copyright.PENANAXHEnAvWtvz
Vivid visions invading my rest 351Please respect copyright.PENANAy3jcZMH6Od
I can't sleep because all I see is death351Please respect copyright.PENANAhB76mP5yB5
I can't stay alive because I'm stuck in my head
I'm digging myself an early grave 351Please respect copyright.PENANAO9TKHj5NdA
Thinking about death at such an early age351Please respect copyright.PENANAqn84MRyGIv
Part of me strives for the moment when the earth lies above my head 351Please respect copyright.PENANAD0Gd62F9Rw
The moment I'm dead is the day I'll rest351Please respect copyright.PENANAzA15AJauxA
No more fighting an uphill battle that never seems to end 351Please respect copyright.PENANAnbtPf6ItBP
But another part of me doesn't want to let go, doesn't want this to end351Please respect copyright.PENANAuNzdtRi3eL
I want to fight to stay alive, I want to fight to "live, laugh, love" again351Please respect copyright.PENANAcqlHoDMXFJ
As corny as that is
I've tried so hard to stay alive, to stop crying351Please respect copyright.PENANAio11dXRTPW
To cut off the memories that I live out in daily reveries351Please respect copyright.PENANAN0W3hAtwI7
The dread that they dismiss as being "all in my head"351Please respect copyright.PENANAxV7bLJaq16
I'm honestly tired of trying to be heard, to be lead in the right direction 351Please respect copyright.PENANAFIWZyBhxOf
Because, so far, it's all dead-ends and "mental health awareness" trends351Please respect copyright.PENANAklJvNsK9Oh
Nobody actually cares until you're dead351Please respect copyright.PENANAqZdnZyiIm5
Until you're another headline in the news351Please respect copyright.PENANApZDQ5x9hyB
All the attention directed on you, and your grieving family who never even knew 351Please respect copyright.PENANAFqjjHcppBc
Because they never tried to listen to you
Now they post on your page, they age and you stay the same 351Please respect copyright.PENANAfLwd6Iao9m
"I miss you today" 351Please respect copyright.PENANAq0GSCvasK0
But they couldn't seem to feel that way when you were around351Please respect copyright.PENANAkuCVbOu5NV
But they care now, 351Please respect copyright.PENANALcoCMnX47e
Now that your life met an abrupt end
And my "friends", 351Please respect copyright.PENANADQ3e3Zwp3R
Mixed signals is all they send351Please respect copyright.PENANAL2ljYjK2jT
One day I matter to them 351Please respect copyright.PENANASjsNMGdFS9
And the next I'm condemned
A few months ago, I was fine351Please respect copyright.PENANASmTjSdY1EF
A few months ago, I felt like flying 351Please respect copyright.PENANAT5UkoqKS8q
A few months ago, I truly felt alive351Please respect copyright.PENANAQgUlDBZKGB
And a few months ago, nothing hurt...
But now, everything hurts 351Please respect copyright.PENANAAf2ngN7548
It's hard to explain with words,351Please respect copyright.PENANAGiQ7DMAfQM
How the silence kills 351Please respect copyright.PENANAqyTHE8VJ7l
How the pain I'm in rips me to shreds 351Please respect copyright.PENANAFNuZtzlThz
How my mind's convinced me that I'm better off dead
It's impossible to count on both hands, 351Please respect copyright.PENANAODxMQjjBqz
How many people I've cut off or let go of because I convinced myself that they deserved better 351Please respect copyright.PENANAVRYjKi6oeX
And look at them now, better off without me anyhow351Please respect copyright.PENANAoDTHAoZoPX
I guess I didn't matter as much as they tried to make me believe 351Please respect copyright.PENANAOIKNp0zk2h
But even their "reassurance" were pretty little lies that they weaved like tapestries 351Please respect copyright.PENANAn2gZmCFIdn
The grief from all the casualties of all of my fantasies, my wildest dreams
There's a theme within all of it351Please respect copyright.PENANAbZyiUVZKn1
The little voice in my head, it screams it351Please respect copyright.PENANAbJlhfH2B8t
"This was their choice"351Please respect copyright.PENANA2h9bln21d6
And to be lonely all the time is mine351Please respect copyright.PENANAeqskg00rVt
All of my feelings are voiced, published publicly351Please respect copyright.PENANAyBlnikLkzx
But they're overlooked, dismissed as fiction, a phase, lucky me...
So now my eyes, once open windows into my mind, close their curtains351Please respect copyright.PENANApAstaLX3n7
The words on all of the pages of my open book erase as the pages are burned351Please respect copyright.PENANAMks97pSWkM
This is exactly what I deserve, everything I've earned after the bridges I've burned 351Please respect copyright.PENANAECRfL3CwGk
It was never on purpose, never my intention, but I never had your attention from the start
All my wishes, sent to the stars, missed them all 351Please respect copyright.PENANAW2droHdNoB
Their light flickered and died as I spent nights in my room crying351Please respect copyright.PENANAIvlQuOH6XU
I wish somebody would call351Please respect copyright.PENANADVW7k5LWRC
But there's no denying that there's no point in trying
So I pour it out in my writing, daily and nightly 351Please respect copyright.PENANAxnzJ35w0h4
But when I post these on the internet, I feel like I'm oversharing 351Please respect copyright.PENANAT2KdDNCY0j
And when I vent to my friends, even though they reassure me that it's fine, I feel like a burden351Please respect copyright.PENANAbqJwArZN2A
A buzzkill, a thrill-killer 351Please respect copyright.PENANAobn25Q3RPo
So I lie, saying that I'm fine 351Please respect copyright.PENANAa4ZNpsx3v7
So that nobody asks questions, and nobody cries 351Please respect copyright.PENANAHfBWXc6AvN
I wanted to feel heard but nobody cared enough, nobody tried
