Why do I try?

I've done everything that I can
To try to make my world a better place
But nothing seems to be working
I keep drawing myself into
That deep,dark place

I have nobody left
Nobody that cares anyway
Every time things get better
They always fall back out of place
Getting worse by the minute
By the end of the day thoughts race my mind
Filled with a million questions
That have been left unsaid

Why am I here?
Why do I have to live?
Why can't I die?
What is the reason for my being here?

As the questions fill my mind
The pain inside grows deeper inside
It feels like a thousand knives
Stabbing my defenseless heart

With nowhere to turn
Nowhere to run away too
The problems keep coming
Making the pain worse.
I've tried so hard
To be the best I can be
But it seems to me
That not even trying
Can make things better

What is the point in even trying?
Nobody will miss me anyway
Things will be better
If I could just die
And go to Heaven

I don't want to feel pain anymore
Nothing seems to be working
If only I could find myself
In a puddle of blood on the floor
Making my way to Heaven
To a place where there is no pain
Where I can live in a world of peace
Of happiness

Maybe then,just maybe
My heart would heal
The wounds would just simply fade
If only it was that easy
To take the pain away.
