Save Yourself

I know sometimes,
It feels,
Like the weight of the world rests on your shoulders,
And for some of us,
This is unbearable,
I know sometimes,
It feels,
Like the weight of the world rests on your shoulders,
And for some of us,
This is unbearable,

But what you face now and then,
Is what I live with every night,
These thoughts are crushing me,
This agony is part of me,
But what we have to accept,
Is that this is out of our control,
This is no fault of your own,
This is a weight upon the world,

I know what you've been thinking,
I know what you've been wishing,
You're hoping that the silent drum within your chest,

Will falter,
And you will be forgotten,
Not a man alive,
Will know your name,

But I am here to tell you,
You are not worthless,
Your life bears meaning,

Should these words reach you,
Before it's too late,
Please heed them,
Please listen,

This is not how our story ends,
There is still so much left to write,
And you must be it's author,

This is what you will believe,
That you are worthless?

It is not your fault,
That you pray for your death,
This is what we are taught,
These words are all I have left,
And I give them to you in hope you'll find solitude,
You must listen to me,
In time you will see,

Your life holds meaning,
Your life's worth living,
You're worth so much more,

This cold dark road,
You walk alone,
Does not have to be,

You fucking know it,
There is hope for you yet,

Listen carefully,

You,
Are not so different,
You,
Are not so different,
From me,

I know sometimes it feels,
Like the weight of the world,
Rests on your shoulders,
This is unbearable,

But what you face now and then,
Is what I live with every night,
These thoughts are crushing me,
This agony is part of me,
But what we have to accept,
Is that this is out of our control,
This is no fault of your own,
This is a plague upon the world,

It's not your fault,

It isn't not your fault,
That you pray for your death,
This is what we are taught,
Pleas are all I have left,
And I give them to you in hope you'll find solitude,
You must listen to me,
And in time you will see,

Your life's,
Worth,
Living,
Your life,
Holds,
Meaning
