I put a gun to my head
Pulled the trigger and hoped I'd be dead the gun was loaded with fake promises and shattered memories
The bullet past through and went straight at me
Shaky breaths nervous glances
All that's left are these instances
I have moments where I shatter and fall apart
there's one thing you can't give up on and it is your heart
I had thoughts that only filled me with dread
But I took and changed them and made them happy instead
I had a knife in my hand
And I tried to place it so I couldn't stand
Twisted and turned
Battered and burned
I wished that I could escape
But I found a better way
I stare at old photographs and notes you left me
Wondering why we couldn't ever be
My eyes slide to the mirror where I used to see my monster sneering
What I see there is no longer fearing
I fell I screwed up I wished to give up
But this battle won't be abrupt
Never give up on you
Even if that's the only thing you do
