The Descent

For days tears have lingered behind my eyes
They won't release, they remain trapped
I've been thinking about all the goodbyes
I think something inside me has snapped

There's so much hurt that I can't release
All of the regret fucking tears me apart
Thoughts of disappearing now increase
My soul only wants to depart

I think of the ones I let slip away
By being consumed with fear
Closing myself off more each day
And now they are no longer here

I hate this life and I hate me too
I don't want to hurt anymore
The only thing I can think to do
Is done behind a closed door

People that care about me
Will be filled with pain
I don't want to see
I cannot sustain

I hope you can forgive
For what I must do
I dont want to live
Its not about you

Just so damn tired
Of living this lie
So uninspired
I did try

Its time to leave
As I descend
I achieve...
End
