They say it is wrong to take your own life
To end it all with the twist of a knife
To step up to that tightened rope
Even though you have just given up hope
They say that everything will be fine
All you need is to give it time
But what is the point of going on
When all you your joy is dead and gone
They say that you have so much to do
That life has so much in store for you
That everyone would hate to see you go
But you lost your will so long ago
They say that you should find a hobby for fun
Like playing a game, or going for a run
It will keep the dark thoughts far away
But all your interest has gone astray
So I put on a mask for those around me
Just so no one ever has to see
The horrible thing that I've become
The fact that all my emotions have gone numb
But maybe
Just maybe
They all lie
