I don't quite think
That you understand how I feel
How could you though
When I can't even begin to explain

I can't face the day
And everything involved
Because it hurts

It hurts to move
It hurts to think
It hurts to talk
It hurts to breathe

My mind is running on the fumes
That remain from all the countless hours
Of agonizing confusion
And mental instability

My thoughts create a numbing pain
In my skull that only gets worse
When I acknowledge its existence
But how do you stop thinking?

I do not wish to die, not just yet
But to simply cease to exist
To never have to experience
Another thought or emotion again

I can't explain why I am like this
I can't even properly explain how I feel
But my tears are burning my cheeks
Like acid and my eyes are straining
From the darkness in my mind

The only thing breaking the silence
Is the sound of my heart
Which hurts with every beat
And I think that maybe
It would be best
To put it out of its misery.
