Dark places even darker actions


 

I hate these feelings 

I hate this home 

I hate these people 

If only they could know

 

I want out, yet you pull me back in

I want out, don’t want to see anyone again

I want out, i hate myself 

 

Nobody cares

Do they know?

Nobody wants me 

Who would

 

My life is full of issues 

I want out 

My life has no purpose 

Only one way out 

I pull the trigger, head hits the ground

 

I hate these feelings 

I loved that home

I loved those people

If only they could know

 

I want back in, theres no escape 

I want back in, its too late 

I want back in, i was wrong

I can’t go back so my soul will fly alone

 

My life had purpose, my eyes were closed 

My life had issues, could’ve been resolved 

People did care, i just didn’t know

People did love me, i hope they never know

My soul know glides lost and alone
