Waking Nightmare

Give up on me, make it quick, 

Take the dagger in my back and stab me with it, 

Take my breath away, give it a home, 

Take away my hope, and dreams, 

Add it to my nightmares, 

Wake me from my daydream of ever having an opportunity to become somebody worth speaking to, 

Tell me how worthless I truly am, and how pointless I feel, 

Pull the plug, 

Release me from this world, 

It was not ready for me, and neither was I
