Gather around while I confess

I swore to you I'd try my best.

Well here it is, my dear friend.

This is where it all comes to an end.

My whole life I've lived a lie

Wishing that I could die

Every yell, curse thrown outside my room

Wishing it would be over soon

Muster up my strength and wipe my tears

Push aside all my fears

Put on the mask that hides the truth

Whatever happened to my careless youth?

The easy smiles and long summer days?

Now I'm constricted by my own ways.

Suicide?

I'm already dead inside.

I could try, but it's not a problem solver.

Blowing it away with a shiny revolver.

Growing up?

Too abrupt.

The butterfly on my wrist doesn't help me.

My dreams are just that, a fantasy

Every day I smile, I'm lying

Every night alone, I'm crying

No escape

No hope

I just need to Face my Fate ~ By Abbey
