White sheets stained red in a hotel bed254Please respect copyright.PENANAfRmdeymAKl
Skin, ice cold, lying on the bathroom floor alone254Please respect copyright.PENANAelbVMbY8FD
Brains blown out in the shed, stone cold, dead
The basement where I cut off my breathing254Please respect copyright.PENANADjXVgiNOCX
My bedroom where I died while I'm sleeping254Please respect copyright.PENANAJzuViv1yW1
Empty pill bottles scattered around my room 254Please respect copyright.PENANAZSNb2IAM3q
Maybe a noose, don't make it loose 254Please respect copyright.PENANA2EqZNtj0ts
Maybe even a death I didn't choose
I'm stuck with these thoughts in my head254Please respect copyright.PENANAvxrLf8mfs5
Vivid visions invading my rest 254Please respect copyright.PENANATquPch9CsA
I can't sleep because all I see is death254Please respect copyright.PENANA6XOUTyxtJW
I can't stay alive because I'm stuck in my head
I'm digging myself an early grave 254Please respect copyright.PENANAcLTErtlQw8
Thinking about death at such an early age254Please respect copyright.PENANAvbWFwj7oKZ
Part of me strives for the moment when the earth lies above my head 254Please respect copyright.PENANADTpqc4XtUt
The moment I'm dead is the day I'll rest254Please respect copyright.PENANAkTR0hOHH4I
No more fighting an uphill battle that never seems to end 254Please respect copyright.PENANAuozEiy47AE
But another part of me doesn't want to let go, doesn't want this to end254Please respect copyright.PENANAZaFqpCMgEL
I want to fight to stay alive, I want to fight to "live, laugh, love" again254Please respect copyright.PENANA4Dj38RFqmL
As corny as that is
I've tried so hard to stay alive, to stop crying254Please respect copyright.PENANAXYJMkCoxc5
To cut off the memories that I live out in daily reveries254Please respect copyright.PENANA2bHv5esbMJ
The dread that they dismiss as being "all in my head"254Please respect copyright.PENANAtFjCFvH4vY
I'm honestly tired of trying to be heard, to be lead in the right direction 254Please respect copyright.PENANAyWy5oOg3ws
Because, so far, it's all dead-ends and "mental health awareness" trends254Please respect copyright.PENANA5JvNZcbbq3
Nobody actually cares until you're dead254Please respect copyright.PENANA0iOXXHdBh5
Until you're another headline in the news254Please respect copyright.PENANAFaSZL5moxa
All the attention directed on you, and your grieving family who never even knew 254Please respect copyright.PENANAjhy4hXXup9
Because they never tried to listen to you
Now they post on your page, they age and you stay the same 254Please respect copyright.PENANAGEvXzxLwLc
"I miss you today" 254Please respect copyright.PENANA38r5Jbg5xB
But they couldn't seem to feel that way when you were around254Please respect copyright.PENANAHEKxkmiOD0
But they care now, 254Please respect copyright.PENANA7eTZEj6n5j
Now that your life met an abrupt end
And my "friends", 254Please respect copyright.PENANAwJW3yREBBd
Mixed signals is all they send254Please respect copyright.PENANAXlSS0HbiiT
One day I matter to them 254Please respect copyright.PENANArKFP2hn31i
And the next I'm condemned
A few months ago, I was fine254Please respect copyright.PENANAwjJVVaWS1f
A few months ago, I felt like flying 254Please respect copyright.PENANAS1qXJgo69k
A few months ago, I truly felt alive254Please respect copyright.PENANABE3DmmJEVw
And a few months ago, nothing hurt...
But now, everything hurts 254Please respect copyright.PENANAhCBFQZ0LIe
It's hard to explain with words,254Please respect copyright.PENANA1toHZKk6Ow
How the silence kills 254Please respect copyright.PENANAMTV9swzqVw
How the pain I'm in rips me to shreds 254Please respect copyright.PENANAT43OCwz472
How my mind's convinced me that I'm better off dead
It's impossible to count on both hands, 254Please respect copyright.PENANA71wg8tPqBg
How many people I've cut off or let go of because I convinced myself that they deserved better 254Please respect copyright.PENANAnmT4WVNSH4
And look at them now, better off without me anyhow254Please respect copyright.PENANAIcliWX2Wor
I guess I didn't matter as much as they tried to make me believe 254Please respect copyright.PENANA9uMuxbQ49l
But even their "reassurance" were pretty little lies that they weaved like tapestries 254Please respect copyright.PENANABSMqBc3xhK
The grief from all the casualties of all of my fantasies, my wildest dreams
There's a theme within all of it254Please respect copyright.PENANAKEBqLYrZy2
The little voice in my head, it screams it254Please respect copyright.PENANAskUVjvhFwJ
"This was their choice"254Please respect copyright.PENANANM1fQi5VX4
And to be lonely all the time is mine254Please respect copyright.PENANA2KAgbEnanI
All of my feelings are voiced, published publicly254Please respect copyright.PENANAgSksHz2bfV
But they're overlooked, dismissed as fiction, a phase, lucky me...
So now my eyes, once open windows into my mind, close their curtains254Please respect copyright.PENANAyZUq8hTAy5
The words on all of the pages of my open book erase as the pages are burned254Please respect copyright.PENANAi4p21wbhVW
This is exactly what I deserve, everything I've earned after the bridges I've burned 254Please respect copyright.PENANAF7hKDMeMZL
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 254Please respect copyright.PENANAcFqLAEeLWV
Their light flickered and died as I spent nights in my room crying254Please respect copyright.PENANA4O07BCM5S1
I wish somebody would call254Please respect copyright.PENANAIUVaX2wMIB
But there's no denying that there's no point in trying
So I pour it out in my writing, daily and nightly 254Please respect copyright.PENANAWvBUk4fbh9
But when I post these on the internet, I feel like I'm oversharing 254Please respect copyright.PENANAIzbj4T7pnC
And when I vent to my friends, even though they reassure me that it's fine, I feel like a burden254Please respect copyright.PENANAEdIWbtCylb
A buzzkill, a thrill-killer 254Please respect copyright.PENANAGvM7wZR8Bu
So I lie, saying that I'm fine 254Please respect copyright.PENANAH9EGhg2n7O
So that nobody asks questions, and nobody cries 254Please respect copyright.PENANAtlCHLwz7ma
I wanted to feel heard but nobody cared enough, nobody tried
