I wish my life came with instructions
So I'd know how to fix myself
I wish success was my only option
So I wouldn't have to fail
This vacant body is no use to me anymore
But I can't go back to the way I was before
My sanity is broken
And shattered all over the floor
Some reach to pick it off the ground
They reach the room for the other pieces
I'm over here screaming "just leave it"
No one notices
No one cares
I'm being torn down by judgemental stares
When I fall
I don't want to feel a single thing at all
Let me be numb
Let it be painless
Dress me in clothing
So the blood doesn't stain it
Don't make me a promise you can't keep
The aftermath will be ugly
It's a mess I don't want to clean
Though I am filled with misery
I never feel it in my sleep
Save me from myself
Take me where there's no one else
Help me describe
What I can't put into words
Leave me the last line
And I'll tell you what hurts
I'd be lying
If I said I'm doing alright
Nevermind about the colorless sky
Close your eyes and pretend to fly
I swore to push
Till my eyes stopped seeing
I swore to push
Till my heart stopped beating
I'm not living
Even when I'm breathing
Leaving everyone and everything behind
Not once did I look
At any of the beautiful sights
I took in the scenes
Of what life really means
Do me a favor when I'm gone
Tell me which side won
I never found my solution
While I was in the institution
To understand the notion
Of all my emotions
Why must I rely
On the day that I die?
