Depression.

Soul Searcher.

You look, I'm smiling

But alone I cry

I really am trying

To make it by

The stares seem to follow

But theres no one around

Not knowing I'm hollow

Cause I don't make a sound

It gets worse from fear

The thought of loneliness

Freezes with a tear

Melts with a kiss

Maybe a solution

To make it fade?

An institution

Or a razor blade?

A rope with a knot

To end it all

Just don't get caught

Before you fall

A person to lie to

They don't really care

Things thought about you

Can't even compare

Hiding away

Your a broken shell

You suffer but stay

You deserve this hell

Thats what you are

And nothing more

Scar by scar

Into your core

Carving in pain

Slicing it deep

Leaving the vein

Blood you can't keep

Tear by tear

Love and life

Year by year

Leaves with the knife

Just bone and skin

Not even brain

Let them in

You'll go insane

It's like an itch

Bleeds when you scratch

Every stitch

Seems to match

This life does not hold

The light of your days

Your rotten with mold

Inhaled through the haze

And as you drop

To your bloodied knees

They'll harvest the crop

Of death and disease

Polluted by the ashes

Of long forgotten spark

Watches through the lashes

Of the monster in the dark

Emotions kept at bay

Your flames gone out

As you waste life away

In your time of doubt

It's finally done

There's no way out

Time for the fun

Time for the shout

Its finally done

There's no way out

See no sun

No wings to sprout

It's finally done

There's no way out

Put down the gun

Here comes the doubt

The decisions made

Can't turn back now

The world seems to fade

With one last vow

Save my soul

Please help me die

And make me whole

Just don't ask why

Let me take flight

Into the sky

Into the light

Just me, myself and I
