Don't let go

When everything was just too much

and nobody cared

what was left behind

even me

Silence

beneath screams

and tears

days lay to pain

remembering means nothing

anymore

You can stand right here

hands above your head

wishing you were dead

but you can't just let go

like that

The world

is alive

and so are you

don't let go

The strength to carry on

isn't mine

I don't know if it ever was

and there is no one

to lend me a hand

cause no one understands

the hate of this life

that I hold

even if they did

they'd be afraid

and turn their heads from me

like they

always

have

If I could escape from this bed

shake the rust from my head

I might try to care

about more than my self pity

But this bed

where I've laid to rest

and where I'll be found

nothing short of dead

to this world

and all of the cold

evil

and hatred

that has brought me to where I am now

Find the light

it's right here

there is nothing to fear

but doing nothing

and rotting away

Warm and brilliant

filled with only

joy and love

It is all right here

open eyes

and open arms

Just don't let go
