Goodbye

I don't want to die
I want to be extinct
And I don't want to lie
But I don't want to push you to the other side
On that side where you'll fall off the cliff
For I know that you can't fly
Your wings have been lost
At your own selfish cost
Maybe if you didn't beat me down to the ground
Didn't make my happiness be found
Then maybe you'd still be able to thrive
Instead of wishing to not be alive
But I know that I don't want to be alive
I don't want to thrive or survive
I don't want to die
I want to be extinct
And you're such a little stink
You rolled yourself around in shit
Made me not want to exist
Don't you know that I hate conformists?
You used to be my best friend
Now the true you has come to an end
I don't even know who you are anymore
You've stripped your true self
Just like a country club whore
I wish you became someone else
The old you, the one who was always true
What have you made me go through?
What have you made me do?
Now I have these scars that cover my wrists
You've made me feel even more pissed
I was already buried in the depression
You just caused me some more aggression
When you were my true salvation
When you stopped all of this anxiousness
But now you are my bullying agitation
And I understand that you represent selfishness
I remember you would tell me that I'm not alright
Beg me not to cut myself at night
Would tell me to just reach out to the light
But you've just made these hands around my neck more tight
I hardly have anymore breath
Maybe I should head into death
It wouldn't hurt a bit if I shot a bullet through my head
Because child, you're making me wanting to be dead
But I don't want to head into the afterlife
For I know that I'll just find more strife
I don't want to die
But I don't want to be alive
I don't want to exist
But I've already rolled around in the shit
My soul is tainted by this world
It sends me through many hurls
Depression and anorexia
They all hurt me inside
Anxiety and paranoia
They all make me want to swallow cyanide
You tried to shove conformists down my throat
But I would not swallow
I don't want to feel anymore sorrow
I'm tired of feeling so hollow
Why did you have to change yourself?
Because now I want to be someone else
I wish I never met you in the first place
For you are such a fucking disgrace
I burned my ribs so you never left a trace
And so I couldn't remember your face
So here it is, here is my tiring sigh
I'm ready to leave, I'm ready to not breath
These are the last words I have to say
For I can only take so much dismay
I'm truly sorry that you can't fly
For you're just another contagious fly
Goodbye
