When everyday the words of others are like knives

Repeatedly stabbing you

When the words coming out of your mouth

The "I'm fine"s and "It's okay"s

Taste like poison on your tongue

When the cracks in your facade

Are shards of glass piercing your skin

That smile you try to keep up

Dangles from a measly thread

When your eyes are glazed

With tears you don't dare to let fall

How do you live when you feel like dying

When the one person you need most

Isn't there to help pick up the pieces with you

When they're too busy to listen to you

Screaming through the other end of the text message

How do you live when you feel like dying?

When nobody is there to save you
