Empty

I feel like no one understands the thoughts that are constantly running through my head,
They're so back and forth,
That I think I've finally lost my mind.

Just want so desperately to escape the things my brain cannot seem to refrain from revealing,
I wish it was easier to conceal my true feelings.

Been lost in my thoughts for months,
Trying to figure out a way to vacate my emotions,
Rather not feel any of the pain,
But numbing it out isn't a choice.

What have I got left then?
Sit here and just chill with my depression like it's my bestfriend?
Give into my demons,
Slit my wrists and watch the blood drip?
Nah, that's not an option.
I can't just give in after all these years of resisting,
The offers always tempting,
But I know in the end all it leaves me with is that awful empty feeling.
