I'M Not Ok

I’m not alright and that’s ok Are just words that people say To ease all the hurt and pain Just to survive another day It’s all bull and it feels fake Convincing yourself not to hate You live for someone else’s sake But it’s all more than you can take You’re so tired and not the sleepy kind And dark thoughts begin to fill your mind Praying what you lost you can again find You tell yourself you just need a little time I’m not alright and that’s ok Just another mind game that we play I’ve lost myself somewhere along the way I just don’t care anymore come what may I whish I wasn’t such a coward and did the deed End everything and let the world forget about me Just lay down and sleep as my wrists bleed I’m done trying to be everything everyone needs So now I’ll finish what I came to say I’m not alright and that’s ok…..
