Where could you be? Hiding in the shadows Somewhere I cannot see Lurking around the corner What do you want from me? About me you always hear Even when you can't see me It is you that I fear Even though you don't truly know me I don't care about what you think or say You mean nothing to me But you hurt me every single day Emotionally you've killed me All I ask for is to die My soul has already perished Pretty soon so will I To no one was I cherished To everything you added a twist Your rumors changed reality into a separate falsehood Think of me as I slit my wrist To destroy me you did everything you possibly could Our petty game you finally won A game of lies and deceit But for you, it was all for fun A game I hope never to have to repeat But I am finally leaving now Never again will I need to ask What are you going to do to me and how And why has tolerating it become my daily task I'll never again need to know where you'll be Or why you're hiding from my pain filled cries Never again will I need to wonder what I'll see When I wipe away the tears and finally open my eyes You are all people just hiding and waiting To emerge from the shadows to torment Watching, listening, blindly hating From the shadows from where you were sent Never again do I need to worry Never again do I need to cry Never again do I need to hurry Never again do I need to ask myself why Now you will have to torment someone new Someone who won't expect the pain Someone who doesn't know what you'll do Someone else who takes the sunshine along with the rain I will never again have to wonder when You will make up a new lie about me Because suicide is my escape and then I'll be gone without even leaving behind a memory And then it is someone else's turn to wonder... Where could you be? Hiding in the shadows Somewhere I cannot see Lurking around the corner What do you want from me?Birth sign: Gemini
