Everyday

Being alive
Yet feeling so dead
Waking to
Another depressing day
Pulling myself together
Only to fall apart
Trying to sober up
Before getting on
With this pathetic life
Trying to be social
But getting put down
Go in my corner
Hiding from this pain
Put on my mask
Locking it all away
Crying on the inside
Faking my way
Through the pain
Lying to myself
Pretending everything is
Gonna be okay
Starving myself
Of all attention
Dressing in all black
To blend in with my surroundings
Trying to be strong
Before I fuck it all up
Ignoring my problems
Pushing everyone away
This is what my life
Is like everyday.
