schools out for the summer
I don’t have to remember
To do my work
And keep my head above water
I can see past my past
Forget my exes
Forget my problems
And just be me
Life can seem to be better, but there’s always something lurking in the corners.
The monster, waiting to take me when I slip
The razor, waiting for a mistake
The darkness, waiting to overtake
I can fight it if I try
Now that I have time to enjoy life
I no longer wish to die so often
But still I know that in the corner is a coffin with my name on it.
I barely survived this year.
I did things I thought I’d never do
So I have no idea how to cope
When in august starts another year of school.
