Darker Here with You

Everyone gives up on you eventually.
The friendships burn and the hearts break
As you descend deeper into your melancholy.

Nobody cares in the end
Their days drone on over and over
Whether or not you're even there
You're nothing but a burden,
Regarding your absence they won't care.

The world is a dark place
And it gets darker for you yet
But for everyone else it gets a little less darker
When you're not with them for another set.

Your job'll move on without you
They'll hire someone else.
They'll do your job better.
The customers'll love them
Your former coworkers too.
Oh yes the world is dark and gloomy,
But it's darker here with you.
