Drowning

When the world turns its back on me
I'm sitting all alone
can't handle being screamed at by my family
I can't go through this on my own

crying myself to sleep
turning up the music so loud
trying not to hear it
trying to drown out the crowd

no one deserves this
tonight I turned to my past
I cut my wrists
to feel the pain I could control at last

the blood seeped out of my skin
and my hand shook
tears fell from my eyes
another cut I should have took

I'd give it all just to fall asleep
with no tears in my eyes
I just don't want to wake up
drowning in everyone's lies
