Do you know what it's like to live and lose,
Or to even die while you're alive?
We all live like we're happy,
But so many are screaming on the inside.
These silent screams may one day set us free.
One day we may feel alive.
One day, we will be alive.
I don't feel like I'm alive,
I feel as if I'm simply breathing.
It's not like I can wake up,
I'm not dreaming.
Some are afraid of death,
But not me.
I will accept it,
I will embrace,
For I have already experienced it.
These crazy thoughts won't leave my head.
Am I alive or am I dead?
I can smile all I want,
But that doesn't make it real.
I haven't been myself lately,
I think there's a stranger
As I leave my broken home behind,
I began to feel as if I'm sucked into the sunset,
I'm vanishing into air.
I feel like I'm seeing the light of day for the first time.
Suddenly I begin to feel truly free.
As I'm filled with an overwhelming sensation,
I wonder what it could be.
I sit and think,
Surrounded by the refreshing air.
I wander through a forest,
I listen to every sound carefully.
I could hear birds singing happily,
I heard a river gently flowing.
I listen to the wind rustle to grass.
And, I swore I could almost hear the sun,
Whispering something to me,
Though I could not understand what.
I was so used to darkness,
That the li
I am not happy,
But I will continue to be.
And maybe some day,
You'll find someone who loves you
Like I do...
And if you don't listen to me,
We can be perfectly happy.
It's hard to hide it,
How I fake my affection.
I ignore you,
Pretend that you're nothing.
It's worthless;
It's pointless.
Please don't listen to me,
We can always be perfectly happy.
Happiness is all that matters,
Though our love is left in tatters.
I gave up this war,
There's simply no point anymore.
If I ignore we were something,
Maybe it'll be like we were never anything.
I'm killing myself.
This will never be the same.
We'll never love each other as we once had.
You can
I can't breathe,
I'm cracking beneath the pressure.
With a heavy heart,
I begin to realize I've fallen out of love.
All the butterflies in my stomach,
All the sparks that once danced between us,
Every word left unsaid
Has become another regret in my head.
In the midst of our passion,
Our love led us astray.
Our hearts became ablaze,
And my heart burned to ashes.
I was your harlequin
But you were the true fool.
I left you alone in the stage,
You were left abandoned.
As all the words I could have said
Begin to fill up my head,
I learn that some things
Are better left unsaid.
No respect, there's nothing left
But regret.
And maybe that's wha
I find it hard to breathe as you tower over me.
I begin to crack under the pressure
And I scream at my suppressor
They say perfection is what we should aim for.
Being acclaimed for what we have done,
Mindlessly, never really living.
They're never truly forgiving.
As you fall,
They'll point and laugh.
Then you begin to feel so small.
The heart that once burned for their passions
Became nothing but ashes.
They'll never understand
What I withstand.
No, they'll never understand.
She sits alone at night crying,
Trying to understand her plight.
They screamed at her dreadful things.
Every word is another scar on her wrist
As she clings to the kni
