Alchemy

Perception always seems to make me sad
I could never figure out what is truth
I could never really figure out what is selfishness
what is selflessness you know
And these emotional crossroads used to excite me
But like, I see now the truth they present
In regards to matters I had personally been attached to and
It's hard seeing someone you love fall out of love with you, you know
Have you ever moved away from everything you loved
Do you ever contradict your own morality
Have you came to the realization that life is hard
And those that can't handle it aren't here anymore
Have you ever considered that you're within that mindset yourself
After all these years, all these talks about how to handle these problems
Even after you swore you'd never take your own life
Even after you felt the pain of losing someone you loved to it
Even after you tried yourself
Even after everyone around you convinced you not to
Even after people would tell you you'd be the next big thing
After you said it yourself, and believed it
These thoughts never go away
