You are not unique...
Everything you say has already been said
These tears you’ve shed and blood you’ve lost
Have all come at someone else’s cost
You are not a victim...
Don't bask in self-loathing as you lay in your bed
This bullshit you've fed insults every true poet
You're an attention whore and you fucking know it
You are not depressed...
There’s no voice but yours inside of your head
By a thread hangs their life, while yours swings away
Until you’ve repeated it all, and there’s no more to say
You are not a lost soul...
You’re just misinformed and misled
You wish you were dead but with each penny you throw
Someone else has made... it... so...
So just shut the fuck up.
