I’m suffocating
On the dirt in my throat,
Buried by all my bad decisions,
They lie as they wrote,
What am I supposed to do?
Surrounded by these tears,
Will I even survive the year?
Burning ever so bright,
All my energy gone by the night,
Hours upon hours,
Of working this way,
I feel like there’s no progress,
Why should I stay?
I can count on my hands,
Of how many people would care if I go,
I don’t want hurt them,
But I’m burning so low,
I just want to breathe,
To not be drowning in the sea,
Of all the decisions I let be,
I’m working myself to the bone,
To bring something to my life,
But it all feels for nought,
I don’t believe it’s worth the price,
Everyone would hate me if I finally let go,
But I’m struggling with this misery,
This misery is all I know,
A few rays of light,
Have pierced through,
But they’re instantly smothered,
And I don’t know what to do,
I’m trying my best,
And it’s barely enough,
I want to be able to breathe,
But the dirt makes it tough.
