White sheets stained red in a hotel bed153Please respect copyright.PENANAwvngmwqi2C
Skin, ice cold, lying on the bathroom floor alone153Please respect copyright.PENANABZoxMrFNwM
Brains blown out in the shed, stone cold, dead
The basement where I cut off my breathing153Please respect copyright.PENANAc3iXTWfJWF
My bedroom where I died while I'm sleeping153Please respect copyright.PENANAUwLskkCHYY
Empty pill bottles scattered around my room 153Please respect copyright.PENANAjFNPJNdqwN
Maybe a noose, don't make it loose 153Please respect copyright.PENANAS2JU7qmsch
Maybe even a death I didn't choose
I'm stuck with these thoughts in my head153Please respect copyright.PENANAPX64t5wRNq
Vivid visions invading my rest 153Please respect copyright.PENANAvlkvAbsqQm
I can't sleep because all I see is death153Please respect copyright.PENANA44yWoJAh7i
I can't stay alive because I'm stuck in my head
I'm digging myself an early grave 153Please respect copyright.PENANAga0WmWNiuB
Thinking about death at such an early age153Please respect copyright.PENANAIQfgOiXCzV
Part of me strives for the moment when the earth lies above my head 153Please respect copyright.PENANAFQP6ZV5Ow3
The moment I'm dead is the day I'll rest153Please respect copyright.PENANAmfFjVQSQfS
No more fighting an uphill battle that never seems to end 153Please respect copyright.PENANAaTAHmWCRg5
But another part of me doesn't want to let go, doesn't want this to end153Please respect copyright.PENANAmhzvr49YPr
I want to fight to stay alive, I want to fight to "live, laugh, love" again153Please respect copyright.PENANAGfbcX3SLqd
As corny as that is
I've tried so hard to stay alive, to stop crying153Please respect copyright.PENANAjE8EAv1Ef8
To cut off the memories that I live out in daily reveries153Please respect copyright.PENANAgVmhd2pkB9
The dread that they dismiss as being "all in my head"153Please respect copyright.PENANAH0lwdFwzBV
I'm honestly tired of trying to be heard, to be lead in the right direction 153Please respect copyright.PENANAYKZOLAbOXL
Because, so far, it's all dead-ends and "mental health awareness" trends153Please respect copyright.PENANAG7HHn4x1pM
Nobody actually cares until you're dead153Please respect copyright.PENANAoDMESUXPiy
Until you're another headline in the news153Please respect copyright.PENANA7MM5Tm65fP
All the attention directed on you, and your grieving family who never even knew 153Please respect copyright.PENANAncgGKEGcAZ
Because they never tried to listen to you
Now they post on your page, they age and you stay the same 153Please respect copyright.PENANA3mvsdebWeX
"I miss you today" 153Please respect copyright.PENANARNr7b59128
But they couldn't seem to feel that way when you were around153Please respect copyright.PENANAKzcp3QQRWI
But they care now, 153Please respect copyright.PENANATjbTkKJ5Aq
Now that your life met an abrupt end
And my "friends", 153Please respect copyright.PENANAtSu7SmhQR0
Mixed signals is all they send153Please respect copyright.PENANACBvZPOgVKz
One day I matter to them 153Please respect copyright.PENANA4DlPlF3wK0
And the next I'm condemned
A few months ago, I was fine153Please respect copyright.PENANAYnjpy6rg1M
A few months ago, I felt like flying 153Please respect copyright.PENANAyYvhqLTkyb
A few months ago, I truly felt alive153Please respect copyright.PENANA4wiX68t3kK
And a few months ago, nothing hurt...
But now, everything hurts 153Please respect copyright.PENANAJVg2fhjxIJ
It's hard to explain with words,153Please respect copyright.PENANAB5F6yVkOvh
How the silence kills 153Please respect copyright.PENANAQUyAXGLfSh
How the pain I'm in rips me to shreds 153Please respect copyright.PENANAyoNVGyNvLQ
How my mind's convinced me that I'm better off dead
It's impossible to count on both hands, 153Please respect copyright.PENANAYv0z3k3SX3
How many people I've cut off or let go of because I convinced myself that they deserved better 153Please respect copyright.PENANACsTw9unEzK
And look at them now, better off without me anyhow153Please respect copyright.PENANABbuYv62q7r
I guess I didn't matter as much as they tried to make me believe 153Please respect copyright.PENANA9F2kou2d5G
But even their "reassurance" were pretty little lies that they weaved like tapestries 153Please respect copyright.PENANAhB7DFPPHZF
The grief from all the casualties of all of my fantasies, my wildest dreams
There's a theme within all of it153Please respect copyright.PENANAnJbaLMnCcY
The little voice in my head, it screams it153Please respect copyright.PENANANdnDH5GLMz
"This was their choice"153Please respect copyright.PENANARYL4UtmE1f
And to be lonely all the time is mine153Please respect copyright.PENANAAZil7GoTG8
All of my feelings are voiced, published publicly153Please respect copyright.PENANA1CaYE1IrYI
But they're overlooked, dismissed as fiction, a phase, lucky me...
So now my eyes, once open windows into my mind, close their curtains153Please respect copyright.PENANAVW6UQWObBD
The words on all of the pages of my open book erase as the pages are burned153Please respect copyright.PENANAk0zyF9oLjj
This is exactly what I deserve, everything I've earned after the bridges I've burned 153Please respect copyright.PENANA4pRLnIYo32
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 153Please respect copyright.PENANAc1lg4GEySb
Their light flickered and died as I spent nights in my room crying153Please respect copyright.PENANAb3WhnWs6ah
I wish somebody would call153Please respect copyright.PENANAxGJhHaiLMH
But there's no denying that there's no point in trying
So I pour it out in my writing, daily and nightly 153Please respect copyright.PENANAhiDl0g2aRK
But when I post these on the internet, I feel like I'm oversharing 153Please respect copyright.PENANAsSuSXkUixM
And when I vent to my friends, even though they reassure me that it's fine, I feel like a burden153Please respect copyright.PENANAnTZDolal51
A buzzkill, a thrill-killer 153Please respect copyright.PENANAqFKEpVbuJ3
So I lie, saying that I'm fine 153Please respect copyright.PENANAnJyaEWdWRK
So that nobody asks questions, and nobody cries 153Please respect copyright.PENANA36GOCqHN22
I wanted to feel heard but nobody cared enough, nobody tried
