No Feeling

What's a moment if you can't feel
Numb to the pain is anything real?
Sitting outside contemplating suicide because life is such a cruel ride
The bad always outweighs the good
Frozen water is cold, but it still floats 
I heard hell is not really hot
The flames are really cold, and my heart is melting
And I'm trying to pick up the pieces still left
Not much is left
Don't know what is really the best
Thing to do
Dirty drinks, dirty mind, dark thoughts, dark clouds, no sun
Positivity isn't allowed 
The negativity is too loud
Quicksand is everywhere and I'm moving slow, feeling low
I just don't know
I numb reaching out for life 
But you can't grab what you can't feel
No feelings
I'm numb
Like I'm just another number and there's too many to count
Sticks and stones may break my bones but words I can't hear because I'm numb
I want to feel the pain
Tattoo my eyes
Maybe then I would cry
But I'm numb 
Tell myself I'm dumb 
Beat myself up I don't need a bully
Me and I got the jump
Rope around my neck but it doesn't matter 
I'm numb 
p.s. but I don't think I'm done...
