I never asked to be human
I hit randomize on the character generator
And this is what I was given
I want to peel off my skin
And let my skeleton dance in the moonlight
I don't want to exist
Or be acknowledged
Or labeled and confined to boxes
I want to undo my life
Unravel it stitch by worthless stitch
And give back the oxygen wasted on me
I don't even deserve to die
Just to never have existed
Every mistake I make
Is a tragedy I wish I could unwrite
If I could swallow my words
And take back every breath
I would gladly unmake myself
I was a mistake
An accident of nature
And the world is better without me
