Live For What?
Why do I always feel
So empty and all alone
Billions of people on this earth
And not one friend to call my own
I have no ambitions
No life-long ultimate goal
All I have is a broken heart
And a dying soul
I've cried for so long
I've almost drowned in my own tears
I can't go on like this
A victim of my own fears
Screaming does no good
Nobody seems to hear my pleads
As I fall further into the abyss
With no idea where it leads
I try to run from my past
But it always catches me
Pushing me harder and harder
To end my misery
I didn't ask to be born
So why am I here
I don't want to live
In sorrow and fear
I don't want to live
With harsh visions in my head
Laying in bed every night
Wishing I was dead
It gets harder to resist
Taking a gun or knife
And saying good riddance
To this world and my life
So empty and all alone
Billions of people on this earth
And not one friend to call my own
I have no ambitions
No life-long ultimate goal
All I have is a broken heart
And a dying soul
I've cried for so long
I've almost drowned in my own tears
I can't go on like this
A victim of my own fears
Screaming does no good
Nobody seems to hear my pleads
As I fall further into the abyss
With no idea where it leads
I try to run from my past
But it always catches me
Pushing me harder and harder
To end my misery
I didn't ask to be born
So why am I here
I don't want to live
In sorrow and fear
I don't want to live
With harsh visions in my head
Laying in bed every night
Wishing I was dead
It gets harder to resist
Taking a gun or knife
And saying good riddance
To this world and my life
