Pull the Trigger

You walked away 
Not giving a sh_t about me
I’m dying inside
Stabbing pain ripping through my veins 

I’m shaking 
I’m losing my mind
It’s been so long
Since I felt your lips pressed against mine

I stay up for hours 
Laying without you
My life is dark
I cling to the light 
With little hope

Everything inside of me
Feels black, emptied 
When you can’t reach out 
When you disconnect like that 
Why don’t you just pull the trigger
Pull the trigger
