Analysis of I do not mean to welcome death
When I say I don't want to be here
I do not mean to welcome death
But simply morn living
Simply state that I wish to be somewhere else; a place or time
To be somewhere within happiness
For where I am , can not fulfill that need
The want
The desire
Of contentedness with one being within matter
So when I say I don't want to be here
I do not ask for death but simply to be
Taken away from here
