Can't Stand Another Breath

Everday, sitting here all alone
Sitting looking out
As the world continues without me
I long to scream and shout

Everyday, lying here in my bed
Tears roll down my face
I'm too exhausted to even move
Sat in the same old place

Everyday, I'm refusing to eat
I'm refusing to speak
I'm cutting so deep
My body torn and so weak

A friend calls to tell me about her day
The laughter, the jokes, the fun
I listen, forgetting what school is like
It has been so long

And one by one the friends cease to call
Cease to speak to me
Lying here in my blood stained bed
As lonely as can be

I used to wish to be like everyone else
But my prayers were unheard
Funny how the days drag so slow
Three years of pain endured

I can't live, can't die, I just exist
Please, I'm begging you death
Please come and take me away from this
I can't stand another breath
