I place my hand over my heart,
Wishing it would just stop beating
Wishing it would take my life away,
Wishing I could escape,
Run away,
Run far away,
From the hurt,
And the betrayal,
And the anger,
And the pain,
I need to leave,
Leave this life behind,
And never to have to think about it again,
Never need to sleep to those nightmares, that haunt my sleep,
Or to wake up to the world, that haunt my every moment,
Never have to force every step I take,
Or to utter a single useless word,
I’ve forgotten how to smile,
And how to laugh,
And to know love,
And to know happiness,
I’ve forgotten the meaning of living,
And the meaning of being me,
Because if being me,
Has brought me to this,
Let it end.
