Heartless and shallow
That's what they see
Tears build up that I cannot swallow
This isn't who I want to be
I want to be invisible
My fake smile is cracking
My reflection shatters until no longer divisible
All of my worries are stacking
How can I keep this up?
When I just want it to end,
My sorrow is about to erupt
This persona I've made is just pretend
Often times I question myself
To be, or not to be
Such an old saying, from a book on a shelf
Yet holds so much meaning you see
What is wrong with me?
Is it depression I face?
Perhaps something more sinister, I believe
My demons follow me to everyplace
What do I wish for?
Am I even real?
This feeling I just can't ignore
I don't want to feel
I can't do this anymore
I'm already gone, can't you see?
Better to say goodbye before
To be or not to be
