-What's worse than feeling sad?

-Feeling nothing at all.

See, I purposely make myself cry
Just to make sure I'm still alive
I dig my nails into my skin
Because I want so desperately to feel again
I'm fading, I'm fading
Becoming transparent
People walk through me
How can they not see?
That I am still here
I'm so full of fear
Am I even alive?
Or have I already died?
I'm fading, I'm fading
Please let me be real
Someone please tell me how to feel
I'm numb inside
They tell me to stay alive
But how can I stay alive
When I'm already dead inside
I'm fading, I'm fading
Am I really here?
