I pushed myself beyond my limits
And now I'm breaking down
You all get to watch and laugh
As I crumble to the ground.
My weariness shows in my body
Pale face and bloodshot eyes
Labored breathing and limping step
And the discontented sighs.
I'm falling back into the darkness
And the nothingness beyond
Will anyone notice that I'm not here
Or miss me when I'm gone?
Ah God; God in heaven
Thou hast turned on me
Gone is my peace within my heart
Shattered by reality.
Suicide is a word that comes
Readily into mind
But every time I think of it
I am even more disinclined.
Break me, beat me;
Crush me into dust
For empires come and empires go
And metals eventually rust.
I don't care what you think of me
And frankly don't care to care
You'll never have to carry the burdens
That I constantly bear.
I look to the rain falling outside
I admit it's been a while
As I look at you with these hollow eyes
And smile my empty smile.

But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely
I got nothing to prove for it's you
That I'd die to defend..."
