I swear I'm not depressed
I'm just tired all the time
And not I'm crying on my bed
For all the joy that can't be mine
If you see me dressed in black
With a rope hanging from my neck
Please remember that I'm not upset
That my life is not a mess
If you get the news that I
Sadly passed away last night
Please remember that I was alright
I was doing perfectly fine
Just ignore all the clear signs I gave
And forget you ever heard my name
I don't want to cause you any pain
By giving up and walking away
I don't want to break your heart in two
After seeing all that I went through
And the monster that I've turned into
I don't want this happening to you
And I would apologize
For taking away my own life
And you'd finally relax
And have some peace of mind
But all those empty words
Would mean nothing at all
After what you've seen
In these white hospitals halls
After all the screams, after all the cries
After all the anger that was born tonight
But I swear it will be fine
I swear you'll be alright
The cut will always sting
Even when it scars
But someday you will see
The stars and you will think
I can live with this
You'll find peace at last
