The Nobody - DC

(Verse One)

I'm sorry I'm such a burden to you.
I stand up and fight for things to be right.
I wanna cry, I don't want to have to type.

I shouldn't have to feel this way.
Just to escape the pain.
Watching my tears fall as my heart gets slain.

I'm nothing to you, just a means to a end.
I wanna be someone, I want you to tell me -

(Hook)
You mean the world to me.
And even when your heart careens.
I will always be here to catch you.

Through it all.
Through it all.
Through daylight and nightfall.
I'll love you through it all.

(Verse 2)

I hear the voices in my head.
Telling me "you are better off dead"
And sometimes I do wanna bleed red.
But I don't, I remember all of the good things I dread.

I imagine us, kids, a house, and a happy life.
But my back can't handle another knife.
Please don't turn me over just to pretend to do me right.
Cause I've seen it all, except to concede to the light.

The darkness - it consumes me.
The happiness- it eludes me.
The depression - it feeds on my needs.
The monster - it devours everything.

I feel like I'm nothing special.
I'm just a guy you met online.
One that you treat like a rental.
When you treat others like a new ride.

I've seen the truth.
Oh, I've wasted my youth.
Fallen on deaf ears.
Lost on so many broken years.
Always living with nobody to hold me near.
Forever facing off against my fears.
