Surviving

Here, on the floor, as I cry alone
I press the blade not to my wrist, but to my soul
Taking a part of me, though I was never whole
Just a crimson blur through the tears
I can't remember back to the years
I know I was happy way back when
I seemed to have a better life plan
All of it was torn to shreds
The first time I ever bled
Bled for you or bled for me
Through the tears I cannot see
Which one it would have been
After life had lost its gleam
Now all I want is to be left alone
To cry on the floor
To cry for my soul
No one will hear me and no one will come
To realize how far I've gone
In wanting to free myself
Right now I'm stuck on this shelf
Wondering if it's worth it to fall
If falling could free me from it all
All the fear I feel up here
Although I don't know what I'll fear down there
There is no peace
As the blood drips
I've gone too far
I can't cant feel my heart
I can't hear myself screaming
My soul bleeds out
There is nothing left of me
I'm no longer living
Just surviving
In a world that drowned me out
