Depression
I am slowly falling away from hope
There is a vast darkness surrounding me
The problems hang my spirit by a rope
They tell me to die and then I'll be free
During the night the guilt and crying strikes
The demons come out when I strike my skin
It eats away at my brain like a shrike
My life's like a string and it's getting thin
Will anyone even care if I left?
The numbers on the scale keep going down
Is taking my life considered a theft?
When I need help the most no one's around
I wonder if it's worth it anymore
Now that daily life has become a chore
