Dying Within

Oh boy, here we go again I wish it was over I wish I was dead My good friend depression Is sitting with me The pain and the memories Are back to haunt me My chest is so tight And my hands are all shaky The tears are just constant And there no peace in me I can’t do this anymore I want to be free I want to enjoy life What is it with me? There is so much pain here It’s so hard to bear I feel like I’m choking In this world of despair I want to be happy Like I used to be To laugh at the world And know that I’m free I want to be gone now On this cloud or that Whichever one takes me From this land that I’m at I so good at masking This world that I’m in I’m laughing and smiling And just dying within
