So this is what it's like

So this is what it looks like

to fall asleep with tears in my eyes

to go to fall under slumber, wanting to die

to nearly drown in a puddle of your own tears

So this is what it feels like

To play the game and not have won

This is what it feels like

To just want to be done

this is what it sounds like

to sob at three am

This is what it sounds like

to have music blasting but still only hear them.

this is my morning

waking up with a tear stained face

rather being in any other place

voice breaking

and still on the verge of tears

if this is what its gonna be like

my life, like this

waking up three hours later every new day,

it will be my own self that my demons will slay.
