Are you happy now?
When the days are done and you are all alone at night,
When you are broken and have scars to prove it,
When you are tired beyond your years,
Are you happy now?
I said, are you happy now?
When the tears run dry and your eyes are bloodshot,
When you can't sleep and the blade no longer provides relief,
Are you happy now?
When you are struggling to breathe and you are slowly suffocating,
When you are surrounded by people and drowning in their happiness, struggling to find your own
Are you happy now?
When you are fighting so damn hard to live, fighting to stay alive
Are you happy now?
In the end, you ask yourself if it was ever worth it.
You ask yourself:
Are you happy now?
