A new world
I want to run away
to a world of hunger
a world of war
a world of infamy
I want to be known by everyone, and forgotten by all
I want to jump in the river and follow its current
I want to break my neck while someone is stabbing me on the side
I want someone to hold me and tell me they love me while they hold a bouquet of flowers and burn the whole house down
I want to suffocate, while being in a dark alley
I want someone to punch me, I'll probably pay them!
I want to feel alive, I want to feel something
I wish I was strong, I know that I am, because if I wasn't I wouldn't be writing this. Goodbye.
