Alone

Have you ever felt so alone
So alone and cold
That your insides cringe
Because you don't have anyone to hold

Have you ever felt really sick
So sick and tired of life
That many times
You have drawn out your knife

And when that knife
Touches your wrist
You feel as if no one else
In the whole world even exists

But you... but how you
Long for your life to end
But as the cut grows deeper
You realize that there is no end

That this world will continue
Continue to hate you
Continue to laugh at you &
Continue to make you cry

So you put your knife away
And try to fake a smile
You cover up the lies and pain
With lies, laughs and denial

So that no one will ever see
The true pain you feel
The pain that slowly kills you every day
The pain that is so real
