Hopeless

I wake up shaking every night

I'm stuck, I have no clue what to do

I'm reckless, ignorant, naive, and scared

The bad dreams every night that go unshared


I keep to myself everyday

If I say something, it becomes real

I can't handle the pain

I can't handle the torture


What do you do when this happens?

Do you just stand there and do nothing?

Do you keep silent and be a soldier?

Do you keep letting people control you?


"Keep silent and mind your own business"

The simplest task is the hardest

I'm going to get myself killed soon

I want to stop but it's in my nature


I want to feel like I matter

But I live in a world that worships money

If it makes them an extra buck

Then it's the top priority


I know that I never mattered

And even if I did,

I would've been found already

I can never find myself


I know, I know

I messed up big time

I'm just a mistake

I'm too easy going and happy


Now, more than anything

I want to be safe

And if that can't happen

Then I don't want to live anymore
