Sadness
cant get you out of my head
no one in particular ,
just the idea of you
some one who truly loves me
and that will hold the key to my heart
but i sit alone
unable to bring my self
to find the words to connect
so now i sit in my room
and please myself
with nothing to comfort me
except self loathing
why do i have to be this way?
why do i have to be me?
for so long i have found ways to escape
and it is all caught up to me
these fantasy's now looking bleak
and without meaning
so sad this life im leading
plow through the day
only looking forward to dreaming
please dont shed a tear for me
not asking for your symphony
guess i just had to get it off my chest
so why is it
that i wake up everyday
inside screaming
telling myself to get away...
abandoned all that makes me me
i find it kinda funny
that all i want is to sleep
but my mind wont let it be
so hour after hour
i lay unsatisfied
begging and praying
for a little relief
a f*****g off switch
lived so long
with this internal bleeding
from scars left long ago...
i really dont know what else to say
so smile and look up to the clouds
embrace the sunshine and enjoy your day
because you may not wake up next time
this is your better day.
