You Just Don't Understand

You don't understand

How it feels

Wanting to die

Yet forced to keep on living

It'll only cause trouble to your friends and family

Like a punishment

Made especially for you

You don't understand

You want to say it

But then...

The stares....

The whispers...

The thoughts....

The hell...

Suddenly, it's hard to say

You don't understand

Lying awake at night

Worrying about the future

The hell tommorrow will bring

When music is the only thing you can turn to

Without feeling like a burden

You don't understand

Looking at the razor

Wanting to snatch it

Cut away your sorrows

And let your life drip away

But not wanting to explain to anyone

Why you're suddenly wearing bracelets

Or always wearing a jacket

You don't understand

Feeling happy for a moment

Suddenly coming home

And then

Depression welcomes you with open arms

And it's all crushed

Back to being yourself again

You don't understand

Looking at the bottle of pills

Wanting to take them all

Leave that suicide note

And finally restart

You don't understand

Wanting to help

But all you can do

Is stand there

And hug like a damn fool

You don't understand

I'm so scared

Of life

The future

Tomorrow

Now

Fights

Rumors

You

You don't understand

Wanting to go somewhere else

A walk

Maybe a run?

Just take a break from it all

Press the pause button

And enjoy the small precious moments

You don't understand

It hurts to live

Don't worry

It surprised me too

I thought it was scary to die

But now

It's the only thing I wish for

You're in the way

Get out

I wish I never met you

It would make this easier

You don't understand

You're not me

You haven't seen what I've seen

Or felt what I've felt

You're not in my shoes

You don't know my thoughts

I'm sorry

You just don't understand
