I'm familiar with the pain
Of living up to your own name
Just another tile in the sidewalk
Invisible to most, but unspeakably hurt when stepped on
A heavenly plea for affection or closure
Wishing for the loving embrace of another
Providing the means to keep on going
Under so much weight, I am no one
My heart has always been a shelter for others
Emptiness is pouring down, I can't find any cover
Sometimes I wonder
Why these thoughts of suicide
Bring me so much fucking peace of mind
I'm familiar with the pain
Of living up to your own name
If I ever lose hope
If I feel like I will drown
If I'm tied onto a rope
Weep in vain, then cut me down
I'll face the world with strength I haven't mustered
