Overwhelmed by moments of utter despair
Every interaction, always trying to disappear
Always out of touch, never good enough
Battling depression but it feels more like I'm being crushed
Trying to keep from losing my grip
The harder I squeeze the faster I slip
Can't alter my thoughts or how I feel
This is all I've got, all that's real
Desperate to withdraw and shelter inside
I don't belong in this world so now I seek the other side
Guilt keeps me from lifting this veil
Always on the verge of throwing it all away
Can I blame it on my luck? Do I blame it on myself?
Does anybody give a fuck? Is it all just in my head?
Mistakes I've smeared across my life
Words fail to express what's happening inside
Life without cause, life without purpose
Grasping at straws, contemplating emptiness
Buried in my head, struggle to comprehend
If this is how it ends, let it be over with
