Falling Away

I can't hear your screams
You tell me to stop
Everything has become numb
I feel nothing
I see nothing
I hear nothing
I am nothing

Why do you scream?
It can't change my past,
It won't change my mind
After I'm gone
You will be better off
Just like everyone wants
I'll leave, you all win

Everything I've ever done
It's all just a mistake
No matter what I do
Or how many times I try
It's not good enough for you, is it?

That's why I'm here
I'll make it better for you
I'll make it better for everyone

I'll walk to the ledge
I'll look down and at the darkness
I'm ready
I'm ready to accept my fate
This is all I'm good for, isn't it?
Just not existing?
That's all I am.
Nothing worthwhile.
Nothing important.
Nothing at all.
The waters below me and the earth
It looks so cold and dark
But maybe
It will welcome me as I fall

I take my steps forward
Slowly, painfully
Expecting everything to just vanish
Everyone, problems, the world
Just me and the waters

And is it better?
Is it worth it?
Is it all gone?
Am I finally free?


Yes.
