to my ignorant family members

I wish depression never existed like
the cuts on my wrist that keep twisting
The blood drips away from my heart and darkness grows near in time to hide these scars

I don't want to go to outside - not today and not tonight
People criticize as if I'm fine, they're not aware I'm not alright
In fact it's hurtful and consuming imagining what I am doing
Most people talk yet don't care, but listen to me
I don't have time to abide by lies
See, I'd rather just hide and create a fake alibi
Change my name, take off a wig and cry
'Cause I will never be strong enough to fly
Y'all never understand and force me to be the one to decide
When you know I'm not all right - not today, not tonight
Then you push me to shame and think it can all "MAGICALLY " go away
But it's been two fucking years and things haven't changed!
It's all because of hate, because things aren't the same
Everyone's dead and gone; shouldn't have waited. I'm too late..

Sorry I'm just a shadow, and it's taking action
I never asked for your reactions

I don't know what to say and these words don't matter
All I know is my heart's shattered
Whipped and battered like an egg
Now take that liquor bottle you abused and break it over my head
I'm through trying to speak, my conversations are always dead
I'm often depressed and mislead and regret ever hoping for the best
I'm like paper and people are the shredders
Every piece of me falls to the ground
I'm so torn you can't even see my face
And people wonder why I want to escape, often imagining my fate
You people are so judgmental when I just want to be saved
If this is how a family chooses to behave, I'm better off leaving and going my own way

Never coming back - not tonight and not today and not the next day or the next day or the next day or the next day or the next day or the next day or the next day
or any other day
