about
As a person who was suicidal multiple times in my life, and have had several people close to me commit suicide, i wrote this to help others. I hope this helps you.
lyrics
Hook
I'm just killing time, waiting for the sickness to take you away. And I'll fight it. I don't need no more. I already died.
Verse 1
Playing a game in my head like chess/
I gotta confess, I'm not feeling my best/
When every single day i wake up in stress/
Has me going through emotions and it's getting intense/
Can't look in the mirror at my reflection/
Voices in my head giving me rejection/
And I'm not a person looking for attention/
But i feel so lonely battling depression/
With this ticking time bomb inside of me/
Could go off any minute, but society/
Won't ever notice while I'm silently/
Dying inside from anxiety/
Cause i brush it off tryin to be the man/
Everyone thinks that they understand/
But i can never relax to stay on track/
With the Weight on my back, I'm about to crack/
Hook
I'm just killing time, waiting for the sickness to take you away. And I'll fight it. I don't need no more. I already died.
Verse 2
Most days i have trouble getting out bed/
Think i need a dr. To prescribe me meds/
I know that its all inside of my head/
But sometimes i feel like I'd be better off dead/
Cause this world has got me eatin up/
These terrible feelings while their beatin up/
My insecurities, they aren't easing up/
And i wonder if I'll ever be enough/
Cant stop for a minute when i need to focus/
When this negativity puts me in hypnosis/
Till i start to feel like I am at my lowest/
Hard to get back up when I'm feeling hopeless/
Cause a war is waging inside my brain/
On the floor im pacing, am i going insane?/
In a daze, i gaze at the astral plane/
When those thoughts race back like a boomerang/
Hook
I'm just killing time, waiting for the sickness to take you away. And I'll fight it. I don't need no more. I already died.
Verse 3
Feel like the storm before the calm/
Is it out of the norm to feel so wrong/
With every little thing i have going on?/
So i made a facade around my dad and mom/
And all my peers, they don't know my pain/
Drown myself in beer, its hard to explain/
All i have is fear, im the one i blame/
I want out of here, inside of me it rains/
Want to escape, but i feel so trapped/
Can't tell a soul cause my head is wrapped/
Around my emotions im about to snap/
Why do i have to wake up feeling like crap?/
So when you ask me how i am i tell a lie/
Even though no matter how hard i try/
This life of mine just passes by/
Waiting for the day i can finally die/
Hook
I'm just killing time, waiting for the sickness to take you away. And I'll fight it. I don't need no more. I already died.
