A Dismal Decline

All I want is to be happy, why is that so hard?

I fail to understand why this awful feeling won't go away.

It feels as if there's a thick back slime filling up my body,

it hurts like knives poking my skull,

it numbs any hope or passion

and leaves me empty and cold.

I promise you

I'm trying to have common sense,

and I promise

that I'm trying to clean up this mess,

And I promise

I tried to save myself

but there is nothing left.

I am dripping inside with with this black
awful rain

If I tell you I'm fine, will you send me your flames

It's not like it matters either way

If I'm somehow alive for one more day

I'd just wish for the rest of me to fade

The rest of me is emptiness and pain

All I want is to be happy, why is that so hard?

To kill this awful feeling I'll do anything whatever it takes.

If I could feel some warmth some radiance or love inside me,

If only the emptiness was gone

I want this existence to die

And leave this awful hopeless life.

I'm promising

That tomorrow will be better

And I promise

This day will turn out to be better

And I promise

I'll try saving myself again

But there is nothing left

I am dripping inside with with this black awful rain

If I tell you I'm fine, will you send me your flames

It's not like it matters either way

If I'm somehow alive for one more day

I'd just wish for the rest of me to fade

The rest of me is emptiness and pain

I am dying inside a dark abyss, looking for my happiness

If stay silent any more, how will you hurt me through locked doors

I've fallen apart in a black hole, my life's been swallowed whole

If stay silent any more, how will you see me through locked doors

If I can live on one more day, I'll wish this to fade away:

All my emptiness and pain

But what's left of me is emptiness and pain
