🚨 TW: mention of self-harm 🚨

You know, I think I feel better when nobody remembers I exist.

Because the butterflies in my stomach have sliced through my heart and are now stuck in my throat.

And I think for once I'm ok with being alone.

You know, nobody cares when you cry, they're only there when you smile.

Sometimes I want to reverse it all back to when I was a child. I had to tend to scarred knees instead of scarred wrists.

Will you remember me when I'm gone?

They say one foot in front of the other but it's hard when your own shoelace is out to get you.

They say one day at a time but it's hard when even the sun glares at you with angry eyes.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, when he realized he didn't have anything to live for at all, so he had his great fall.

My own fantasies, my own cartoons in my mind can't even be an escape.

If you have a second to listen, maybe you can hear what I preach.

Maybe you can listen to me spread my religion of pain.

BECAUSE ITS ALL I HAVE LEFT!
