You stand there, taking deep

Location

You stand there, taking deep breathes.

Hoping to God its not happening again

Confusion & Despair is all you feel

The verge of breakdown, you're on your heels.

Tears run down your face, you're in fear

You thought you feel numb, but once again you're wrong

Take a deep breathe & it'll all be gone

But you get flashbacks

Too much to handle, just wanna getaway

Life's rough & you don't wanna stay

You stand on the edge of the bridge, staring into the water

One jump & it'll all be over

You snap out of it

What are you thinking?

Too many loved ones here, no way you're sinking

Cant cause them all that pain

They'll all just go insane

You leave & buy a dime, a couple puffs & you'll be fine

This is all getting to my head, fuck it i'll just to bed

Take a couple pills hoping they were stronger

They say lifes a dream but my dreams are crushed

This is all too much

Can't keep up with the pace

But i cant wait for the day

Where i can stare at Death in the face.
