If You Knew
If you knew
All the thoughts
That I knew were true
How many times I fought
To try and tell myself that
They couldn't possibly be true
I've had hold on to dear life
But why
I could have been long gone
I wouldn't have to try
and stay
Maybe I'm just hoping
Hoping things will get better
But I know they won't
Things could never get better
Because I have to many
worries
To many tears
So many stories
That I wish could just disappear
I just want to be happy
But I could never feel that
Because I am nothing
What am I even here for
Why am I living
Why aren't I dead
I should have been gone by
now
That's what they have said
