Do you know what it's like
To feel so numb inside
That you bleed just to know you're alive
To feel that you just don't care anymore
Do you know what it's like?

Do you know what it's like
To be tired, so tired you can't move off the floor
To want to sleep but your eyes won't stay shut
And you just lay there, wondering what day it is
Do you know what it's like?

Do you know what it's like
To feel so frgile that you're afraid to move
Or else you would shatter into a million pieces
So tiny that you could never pull yourself back together
Do you know what it's like?

Do you know what it's like
To be in so much pain that you want to drown
So you drown yourself in a bottomless bottle of alcohol
And with each sip, you wait for the pain to disappear
Do you know what it's like?

Do you know what it's like
To have "friends" who leave you feeling stranded and alone
To feel invisible amongst those you thought you knew
To have friends who forsake you when you need them the most
Do you know what it's like?

Do you know what it's like
To be in such a rage that you do things you've never done before
To scare your friends and family, even yourself
With your brash and dangerous thoughts and actions
Do you know what it's like?

Do you know what it's like
To want everything to just end, to just go away and leave you alone
To just want to end it all and are willing to do anything for it
To want to just disappear, knowing no one will miss you when you're gone
Do you know what it's like?

Do you know what it's like?
Because I do, and I just want to make this go away
So you can let me rest in pieces, let me rest in pieces.
Could you find it in your heart to make it go away?
once again, this comes from a time in my life where i was not in a good place. i was angry, lashing out and being very broody. my so-called "friends" stabbed me in the back and i was soo close to just ending it all. because i need to ge my emotions out, oftentimes art or poetry is the result. can you tell me what songs i was listening to when i wrote this?
