Suicide

44 14 3
                                    

As the blackness seeps out from your skin

Demons clawing their way in

They leave you in ribbons

Knotted on the floor

Sometimes you want to escape

Sure you can't take anymore

A knife is a simple release

Attacking your skin watching

As the blood litters the floor

Reprimanding your sin

The beast is inside you

Watching your every move

You kick it out countless times

But it always returns

It's part of you now

You're part of it

Everything seemed happy

But now you're in the thick of it

Depression was just a word

Falling upon your skin

But now it's your life

Destroying you from within

Please stop, for me?

But it's not that simple

I would if I could but I can't

You lose the battle sweet release

They find you and they fall to their knees

Tears of sadness fall upon your skin

Your parents sit in wait watching the door

Wishing you would come stumbling in

At 2 a.m. or 4.

Background Story:

This was super hard to write, I've known so many people with depression. Some people lose the fight. I was lucky enough to win it. I hope people read this and realize you're not destroying yourself; you are destroying your whole family. I really hope that if any of you need to talk you can message me. I don't mind chatting to you if you're upset or angry or just need someone. Just please talk to someone either me or a friend before you ever consider ending your life. It's one decision that can't be taken back.

This song and band mean a lot to me, I was showed them by someone who I will always care about. She's still alive, I used to listen to this band when I felt super down and they helped me cry and let it all out. Tears hurt less than blades. Also the retro sound of the song is beautiful.

Hope you all manage to win the fight against your demons. If you're struggling shoot me a message.
