Peace



Another rainy day
Woke up this morning feeling the same way
I feel as though I haven't smiled in days
People asking me if I'm okay
The thing is, it's hard for me to explain
I hate this life I'm living, I hate me
I have nothing to live for these days.
Crying all the time, I feel like a waste of space
I cut myself to see how much I can bleed
The pain from that is such a high to me
Drink a bottle of vodka straight
Slice my arms, move on to my legs
Sit and watch the blood pour out
Trying not to scream
Numbing the thoughts in my head
No one listens to me
I told you I wasn't happy
I told you I needed space.
You all just laughed and said I was crazy
Well so long for now
Til we meet again one day
Sweet dreams cruel world
I make my peace today
