You tell me while you cry
All the reasons why
You want to die

They aren't good enough
The strife can be reached above
And you don't need any love

You only listen to yourself
And drown in the emotions felt
Down so far that you never hear me
And you're still blind to everything
Unable to breathe

Cut yourself, slice the vein
Kill yourself, hate the pain
Don't think about anything
Just give up everything
And cut the pain away

Forget why
You were given a life
Forget why

Cut Yourself

You tell me while you cry
All the reasons why
You want to die

They aren't good enough
The strife can be reached above
And you don't need any love

You only listen to yourself
And drown in the emotions felt
Down so far that you never hear me
And you're still blind to everything
Unable to breathe

Cut yourself, slice the vein
Kill yourself, hate the pain
Don't think about anything
Just give up everything
And cut the pain away

Forget why
You were given a life
Forget why
I even tried

It's a trial of patience, when trying to help one who is depressed. Whether it be yourself or a loved one. Well expressed.

peace

Very good write.....I can feel your frustration with trying to save this person who won't save their self.....Sometimes taking a step back from the situation does some good - Remember they have to want help as much as you want to help them.....
Thanks for sharing!

This is amazing and very very true. I've felt like that and I've done that. Tried to tune out the people that cared, that tore down my reasons. I told my self they didn't get it and carried on my dreary way. This hits so very close to home. I love it. -Sami-
