Survivor

In this empty room staring at the ceiling All confused with funny feelings I’ve got voices in my head Now I’m talking to the dead They tell me I’m alive Cause I survived The scary thought, of suicide They tell me to appreciate The life that I am given And one day I’ll be driven into heaven Where I will meet the real friends That I am given Until this day I’ll sit and wait For someone to come and end my fate

Hi Steve, Many of us battle those feelings. I've never had to deal with voices but a lot of the kids I've worked with do. This is a good honest write. Keep writing. Vince
