Better Off


Maybe I'm better off dead, No one has heard my crys, Nobodies listening to my goodbyes, No one's going to miss me when I'm gone, I mean just take my hand, Maybe I can help you understand, Why hasn't anyone heard my crys, I should just say my goodbyes, Maybe I'm better off dead, You think I am happy, But that's just a mask, One that's always on, I am in pain, Suffering in agony, I have no reason to stay, I'll slowly fade away, No one can here my cry, Nor did they care when I said goodbye, Maybe I'm better off dead.
