As I close this book I also close my heart
I feel like I should have never opened it from the start
My mind is so twisted and I don’t know what to do
I’m stuck between what’s right and wrong, I have no clue
Feelings that were once great have now turned into hate
there is no debate that death will be my fate
I hate the way I live and I can’t take it anymore
I must end my life so I can even the score
With a society that doesn’t care about me
I bleed just like them, when I slice my wrist they’ll see
The pain that they put me through when they knocked me down
I’ll bleed a pool of blood and in that pool I’ll drown
Society has caused me to commit this sin
and in the long run they’ll just sit there and grin
As I drown in a mixture of tears and blood
Streaming down causing a flood
And as society has pure bliss
I know I’m the one that won’t be missed
Why can’t they just see the pain they are causing
why do they say things without pausing
Today the world is full of hate
leaving some in a painful state
Just like me they’ll slice their skin
and in the end society will win
But why do they do this awful task
why do they put on these plastic masks
Do they wake up in the dawn of day
and wonder whose life they’ll ruin today
Well they won’t have to wonder about me anymore
They left me no reasons to live but many to die for
Thank you society for all that you have done
You have defeated me; I know you’re happy you’ve won
Go ahead and take your victory lap in the wake of my death
Dance in the pool of my blood as I take
my
last
breath
