I'm not strong enough

I'm not strong enough

To be this way

I can't bear to

Say what I have to say

It tears me apart to think I had it all

Just to wake up and realize

I had nothing at all

And feel the pieces of my soul

Cut through my skin

Which seemed too thin

It gets better they say

So please live another day

You wouldn't believe how many times I've seen

In my dreams

A better life

Where I'm given a second chance to be who I am

I just want to scream 

How could anyone not see

The sharp edges of my soul sticking out of my body

That's the reason I talk to nobody

My life is just a show

And I'm controlled by a twisted puppeteer

Who won't let go

My strings won't break

But my heart will

Voluntarily it steps up to the plate

And shatters like a vase

Dropped from the tallest tower

I can't live another hour

In this life

Hand me the knife

And take my life
