Slipping Away



Do I have to bleed for you to hear me

Do I have to scream for you to care

Do I have to disappear for you to notice

Do I have to die, for you to be there?



Do I have to continue to hurt like this

Do I have to live another day

Do I have to try and fight this

because I know of another way



You all say that you need me,

but when I look, no one is there

It might be a bit easier to be there for you,

If you didnt run when I was in need of you



I've grown aware of the fact that I will be alone

It is not that hard to see all the signs

I have held on as long as I could, through all the pain

But today, in this moment I have to say,

I feel that I am slipping away



So I'll fade away,

and become the ghost I was meant to be

You won't notice that I am gone

because I have gone unseen.
