White sheets stained red in a hotel bed250Please respect copyright.PENANAaONWvzKMmq
Skin, ice cold, lying on the bathroom floor alone250Please respect copyright.PENANAubQtC8APsb
Brains blown out in the shed, stone cold, dead
The basement where I cut off my breathing250Please respect copyright.PENANALfkoUwwqt2
My bedroom where I died while I'm sleeping250Please respect copyright.PENANAcdd6xubICy
Empty pill bottles scattered around my room 250Please respect copyright.PENANA65EGNLLAsl
Maybe a noose, don't make it loose 250Please respect copyright.PENANADHwCJ3Y219
Maybe even a death I didn't choose
I'm stuck with these thoughts in my head250Please respect copyright.PENANAqbtitERf3n
Vivid visions invading my rest 250Please respect copyright.PENANAkSAnOgb6c3
I can't sleep because all I see is death250Please respect copyright.PENANAVxJUnC5DoH
I can't stay alive because I'm stuck in my head
I'm digging myself an early grave 250Please respect copyright.PENANAZOxIIKRwZZ
Thinking about death at such an early age250Please respect copyright.PENANAlOuqKGY18h
Part of me strives for the moment when the earth lies above my head 250Please respect copyright.PENANAX8JfL3lwLV
The moment I'm dead is the day I'll rest250Please respect copyright.PENANAvpi1Au2yc9
No more fighting an uphill battle that never seems to end 250Please respect copyright.PENANAXsp5l6bxyD
But another part of me doesn't want to let go, doesn't want this to end250Please respect copyright.PENANAUy9X2r2OyH
I want to fight to stay alive, I want to fight to "live, laugh, love" again250Please respect copyright.PENANA7vJjpALWZy
As corny as that is
I've tried so hard to stay alive, to stop crying250Please respect copyright.PENANA3LYHUxBkuk
To cut off the memories that I live out in daily reveries250Please respect copyright.PENANAqC2Fz8VPIE
The dread that they dismiss as being "all in my head"250Please respect copyright.PENANAS6qepxRLLS
I'm honestly tired of trying to be heard, to be lead in the right direction 250Please respect copyright.PENANAHnaytzMgC2
Because, so far, it's all dead-ends and "mental health awareness" trends250Please respect copyright.PENANAcKmptS7S4k
Nobody actually cares until you're dead250Please respect copyright.PENANA9COHUYSF3Z
Until you're another headline in the news250Please respect copyright.PENANAqjFI55JXGN
All the attention directed on you, and your grieving family who never even knew 250Please respect copyright.PENANAVgku5xf0ZC
Because they never tried to listen to you
Now they post on your page, they age and you stay the same 250Please respect copyright.PENANAp2ImKsJAzk
"I miss you today" 250Please respect copyright.PENANAkKPmXAYX41
But they couldn't seem to feel that way when you were around250Please respect copyright.PENANAQUvn67ieQx
But they care now, 250Please respect copyright.PENANA8rUwo2uVIY
Now that your life met an abrupt end
And my "friends", 250Please respect copyright.PENANA3iK6ty2TUQ
Mixed signals is all they send250Please respect copyright.PENANAWnZmovDVyg
One day I matter to them 250Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4YxOiVhhb
And the next I'm condemned
A few months ago, I was fine250Please respect copyright.PENANAxa9NfEquzt
A few months ago, I felt like flying 250Please respect copyright.PENANAdDhIYMB0hL
A few months ago, I truly felt alive250Please respect copyright.PENANAN5KDE1pq3E
And a few months ago, nothing hurt...
But now, everything hurts 250Please respect copyright.PENANA2T1Xjx3tZK
It's hard to explain with words,250Please respect copyright.PENANAE8vsdJk2O4
How the silence kills 250Please respect copyright.PENANAjIuP0usR4R
How the pain I'm in rips me to shreds 250Please respect copyright.PENANAnXuOGLuw44
How my mind's convinced me that I'm better off dead
It's impossible to count on both hands, 250Please respect copyright.PENANAOTVI8m86Bm
How many people I've cut off or let go of because I convinced myself that they deserved better 250Please respect copyright.PENANAICkooaNUNB
And look at them now, better off without me anyhow250Please respect copyright.PENANAdAMC2kp9wA
I guess I didn't matter as much as they tried to make me believe 250Please respect copyright.PENANAEDeXVPteoe
But even their "reassurance" were pretty little lies that they weaved like tapestries 250Please respect copyright.PENANAa0cPPfgWeS
The grief from all the casualties of all of my fantasies, my wildest dreams
There's a theme within all of it250Please respect copyright.PENANAaKZgi92bU8
The little voice in my head, it screams it250Please respect copyright.PENANAYQv18aeejd
"This was their choice"250Please respect copyright.PENANAUQlo6SgKTG
And to be lonely all the time is mine250Please respect copyright.PENANAblINXkAbkt
All of my feelings are voiced, published publicly250Please respect copyright.PENANACcivxjXCAa
But they're overlooked, dismissed as fiction, a phase, lucky me...
So now my eyes, once open windows into my mind, close their curtains250Please respect copyright.PENANAFsBvVd3yo9
The words on all of the pages of my open book erase as the pages are burned250Please respect copyright.PENANAnsMbYMXOvu
This is exactly what I deserve, everything I've earned after the bridges I've burned 250Please respect copyright.PENANAvFEEA9P8cE
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 250Please respect copyright.PENANA5zpwziHL70
Their light flickered and died as I spent nights in my room crying250Please respect copyright.PENANAq1SaRyw4yR
I wish somebody would call250Please respect copyright.PENANABhxM9QYNOI
But there's no denying that there's no point in trying
So I pour it out in my writing, daily and nightly 250Please respect copyright.PENANAaPLR3L2MW6
But when I post these on the internet, I feel like I'm oversharing 250Please respect copyright.PENANADbMtS3h5PP
And when I vent to my friends, even though they reassure me that it's fine, I feel like a burden250Please respect copyright.PENANAirXZtJOJyv
A buzzkill, a thrill-killer 250Please respect copyright.PENANA7qkby5BcdM
So I lie, saying that I'm fine 250Please respect copyright.PENANAnZLntJilym
So that nobody asks questions, and nobody cries 250Please respect copyright.PENANArxBbMKHic6
I wanted to feel heard but nobody cared enough, nobody tried
