When?

I might have tried to kill myself last night.
I might be sitting in a hospital bed,
as alive as I can ever be on the outside,
But on the inside,
Oh, on the inside,
I died months ago.

I died when I got quiet.
I died when I started bleeding every night.
I died when I withdrew.
I died when I stopped enjoying the company of friends.
I died when I was always tired.
I died when I couldn't live anymore.
No,

I died when I didn't enjoy living.
