ARE YOU LIKE ME?

Have you ever wanted to die so badly,
that it hurt just to know you were alive?
Have you ever forced yourself to smile,
when you only wanted to cry?
Have you ever yearned to slit your wrists,
and watch your "life" pour away?
Have you ever loved someone so much that you said goodbye,
when you really just wanted to stay?

Have you ever been standing on the bridge,
wondering if you could fly?
Do you cry yourself to sleep at night,
wishing you'd JUST DIE?!
Do you pop pills at the end of your day,
to numb you from your pain?
Do you have to drink and smoke,
just to keep from going insane?

Is pain the only thing,
that can show you you're still breathing?
Do you feel guilty when you smile,
at all the people you're deceiving?
Do you feel alone,
because you won't let anyone know who you are?
Do you feel like a failure,
when you look at every little scar?

Did you ever fall apart,
just to see him smile?
Did you ever Love him so much,
you were willing to live in denial?
Have you ever wanted to rip the heart from your chest,
So you wouldn't WANT to care?
Are you burdened with a weight,
you're not sure you can bear?

Have you ever hurt yourself,
just to prove you could still feel?
Did you Love him with all you had,
Even though you knew it wasn't real?
Was it right in front of your face,
but still you couldn't see?
Do all your dreams consist of your Death...
