Into the dirt



What a wasted life I’ve lived.
All this wasted love I’ve give.
None of it returned was true.
Not from them, not from you.

Countless days and nights I’ve cried.
For countless days and nights I tried.
Not worth the love of anyone.
Forced to end this life alone.

Searched every mirror I could find.
Searched every corner of my mind.
The wounds and scars that still drip blood.
Forever wonder why I’m not worth their love.

Can’t trust nature to end this hurt.
I’ll put myself into the dirt.
