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
