Hardly could I breathe,
for these thoughts never leave
in my head a war is going on,
wishing for death; I feel so alone.

"You were never loved
never will you be good enough
you're not pretty, not even smart
you're nothing but a fragile heart
you're useless, no one needs you here
to tell someone about this, do not even bother."

Yes, ain't begging you to stop
hoping you'd give me a zap

"Dear mom and dad, I'm sorry
always do I bring you tragedy
my dearest school, I'm sorry
a student so inept, I'm such a debacle
my friends, I'm sorry
I let these demons defeat me
these feelings I suppress,
there's nothing you can do
I'm just saving you from distress
this I'm telling you,
about me, you shan't worry
fixing I don't need
what I wanted was to be freed
now let me go,
for this melancholy
forever will haunt me."

Does it satisfy you now dark little creature
for giving me this horrifying seizure?
Are these the words you want to hear,
now will you make me disappear?
