An overwhelming sadness
It comes with an insane madness
A feeling so heavy and strong
Reminding you of everything you've done wrong
Leaving you to feel so pathetic
Some say it's genetic
But the disorder is so real
With the blade to help you feel
What if you're the only one?
Left to fight a war that has just begun
So lost and alone
Never feeling safe or at home
It's a sadness that never leaves
One that forces you to wear long sleeves
You wonder if you'll ever be okay
From the path of happiness you've gone astray
It keeps you wondering if you should keep living
No help to you is worth giving
No matter how much help you seek nothing gets better
So finally you sit down and write your last letter
A suicide note
Ended with your favorite quote
It's an overwhelming sadness
That drives you into the world of madness.
