It's 2 a.m. and i'm crying
And after a lot of time,
I again think of dying.
Music can't help this time,
Nothing can.
I just can't help but feel lost,
Again.
Daisy is alive,
But rose is long dead.
And it doesn't really matter,
But the demons in my head
Are getting louder.
I can hear them again.
And i thought it stopped,
But as i write in pain
I realised that it isn't enough,
This time that has passed
It just isn't enough.
And maybe it won't be enough
Ever.
Maybe i'm stuck with this pain
Forever.
My eyes are burning and they're bloody red.
Dad is sleeping on the bed
In the room next to mine.
If i did something stupid he would wonder
"why?"
But he can't find out.
No one can.
I need to keep it a secret.
The fact that i'm broken. Again.
Outside daisy, inside rose,
I have no other choice,
I gotta see how it goes.
Pretending.
