White sheets stained red in a hotel bed353Please respect copyright.PENANA1YbTcvbxTw
Skin, ice cold, lying on the bathroom floor alone353Please respect copyright.PENANAYx2GolnQbT
Brains blown out in the shed, stone cold, dead
The basement where I cut off my breathing353Please respect copyright.PENANAhwqZIx9zQp
My bedroom where I died while I'm sleeping353Please respect copyright.PENANARPFwYKTEJm
Empty pill bottles scattered around my room 353Please respect copyright.PENANAB5FC5WmWp8
Maybe a noose, don't make it loose 353Please respect copyright.PENANAx5Bq65n7BF
Maybe even a death I didn't choose
I'm stuck with these thoughts in my head353Please respect copyright.PENANADeTdHrChoO
Vivid visions invading my rest 353Please respect copyright.PENANAG3dH6wRZZ8
I can't sleep because all I see is death353Please respect copyright.PENANA5hNrPbWthX
I can't stay alive because I'm stuck in my head
I'm digging myself an early grave 353Please respect copyright.PENANAXRfzknLv2c
Thinking about death at such an early age353Please respect copyright.PENANAKxNH7Xid1o
Part of me strives for the moment when the earth lies above my head 353Please respect copyright.PENANAgxFDdJh1DQ
The moment I'm dead is the day I'll rest353Please respect copyright.PENANAuNfURs2YzE
No more fighting an uphill battle that never seems to end 353Please respect copyright.PENANAVhBy5dTt24
But another part of me doesn't want to let go, doesn't want this to end353Please respect copyright.PENANAxNbmqkclwE
I want to fight to stay alive, I want to fight to "live, laugh, love" again353Please respect copyright.PENANAn58hd0ilQi
As corny as that is
I've tried so hard to stay alive, to stop crying353Please respect copyright.PENANAyQSrsilNeU
To cut off the memories that I live out in daily reveries353Please respect copyright.PENANA3WHiG1e7cK
The dread that they dismiss as being "all in my head"353Please respect copyright.PENANAjyAjhfyVbN
I'm honestly tired of trying to be heard, to be lead in the right direction 353Please respect copyright.PENANAyWF10sRqc2
Because, so far, it's all dead-ends and "mental health awareness" trends353Please respect copyright.PENANAzr5IhJb7k6
Nobody actually cares until you're dead353Please respect copyright.PENANAzbvUQXzQPa
Until you're another headline in the news353Please respect copyright.PENANAIi76vrA8Q8
All the attention directed on you, and your grieving family who never even knew 353Please respect copyright.PENANA50B0qtrXda
Because they never tried to listen to you
Now they post on your page, they age and you stay the same 353Please respect copyright.PENANAAqb7QDentL
"I miss you today" 353Please respect copyright.PENANAHeOQOTIdVr
But they couldn't seem to feel that way when you were around353Please respect copyright.PENANAPGUdqw9vR8
But they care now, 353Please respect copyright.PENANArx2LVbzc6Q
Now that your life met an abrupt end
And my "friends", 353Please respect copyright.PENANAjVwL5RPnob
Mixed signals is all they send353Please respect copyright.PENANAOhki39d0Ej
One day I matter to them 353Please respect copyright.PENANAEqCzev6qW3
And the next I'm condemned
A few months ago, I was fine353Please respect copyright.PENANAx0GDz06rId
A few months ago, I felt like flying 353Please respect copyright.PENANAgZtlrjDrEY
A few months ago, I truly felt alive353Please respect copyright.PENANAc6aKRqTOuA
And a few months ago, nothing hurt...
But now, everything hurts 353Please respect copyright.PENANAhkDAgOEOUC
It's hard to explain with words,353Please respect copyright.PENANA1d1SyenXQ1
How the silence kills 353Please respect copyright.PENANANAp4aR8tu7
How the pain I'm in rips me to shreds 353Please respect copyright.PENANA3FbyG9wpmP
How my mind's convinced me that I'm better off dead
It's impossible to count on both hands, 353Please respect copyright.PENANAkBpwoq5YJG
How many people I've cut off or let go of because I convinced myself that they deserved better 353Please respect copyright.PENANALNPXizBL4o
And look at them now, better off without me anyhow353Please respect copyright.PENANAhVcW76HLd4
I guess I didn't matter as much as they tried to make me believe 353Please respect copyright.PENANArfeCaMrrfd
But even their "reassurance" were pretty little lies that they weaved like tapestries 353Please respect copyright.PENANA3RJQUq8o8f
The grief from all the casualties of all of my fantasies, my wildest dreams
There's a theme within all of it353Please respect copyright.PENANAraPEG2oUeU
The little voice in my head, it screams it353Please respect copyright.PENANAZLfIT1MHgK
"This was their choice"353Please respect copyright.PENANAQC2jz5BGpb
And to be lonely all the time is mine353Please respect copyright.PENANADeE7al6Lsk
All of my feelings are voiced, published publicly353Please respect copyright.PENANArFuukh3qN9
But they're overlooked, dismissed as fiction, a phase, lucky me...
So now my eyes, once open windows into my mind, close their curtains353Please respect copyright.PENANAgKkRJRkzJn
The words on all of the pages of my open book erase as the pages are burned353Please respect copyright.PENANAdv3ZfCzPeY
This is exactly what I deserve, everything I've earned after the bridges I've burned 353Please respect copyright.PENANAPbkMbcY1tE
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 353Please respect copyright.PENANAnT21T8zYLC
Their light flickered and died as I spent nights in my room crying353Please respect copyright.PENANAidWJJeTgoI
I wish somebody would call353Please respect copyright.PENANAS0NMWmnbxn
But there's no denying that there's no point in trying
So I pour it out in my writing, daily and nightly 353Please respect copyright.PENANAz1tUptmJR1
But when I post these on the internet, I feel like I'm oversharing 353Please respect copyright.PENANAV3C9U9B7gB
And when I vent to my friends, even though they reassure me that it's fine, I feel like a burden353Please respect copyright.PENANA1ahWSs6pxq
A buzzkill, a thrill-killer 353Please respect copyright.PENANA0EOstLVru2
So I lie, saying that I'm fine 353Please respect copyright.PENANAFi4bimfhtN
So that nobody asks questions, and nobody cries 353Please respect copyright.PENANAkIkiABUR6x
I wanted to feel heard but nobody cared enough, nobody tried
