I didn't know
How deep the cuts were
Until I was at a loss for words
I felt this pain up in my chest
That made living
Hurt just a little more
I was at a war within myself
The blood was pouring out
All over the floor
This reflection was staring at me
Cocked the gun
Then pointed it at me
I didn't flinch
The demons
Circling me
Like water the drain
I was looking at a person
Not realizing
Who was staring back
Tears swelled within my eyes
As I tried to take my own life
This can't be it
As I set there
On the floor
Begging myself
To continue fight
To hold on just a little longer
Tellin myself
That I am stronger
The pain too deep
Within my heart
I can't keep living...
If I just shut life's door
Swiftly behind me
Then no one would know
The pain my body was enduring
The fight I kept having
Everyday day
Like the last
A battle damn near impossible
To win
I ain't want them
To remember me this way
I wasn't always this broken
