Why do I look deep inside
For someone I am not?
Why do I try so hard
To be this being I am not?

Who can I blame
For my loneliness?
Because they always say
“Never think it is your own fault”
So who can I blame?

I search for answers
In my pillow
With red tears streaming from my leg
I search

Wishing upon all the stars
As I lie on my back on the sand
Staring above
“I wish I was normal”

Trying so hard to act happy
Trying so hard to make mysalf better
But there always that voice in my head
Causing me so much pain

Dancing the scissors
And watching them play
Laughing manically
As I feel a little more pain

Wondering what went wrong
Thinking of my turning point
I can’t put my finger on it
Just like I can’t tell when it will end

But all I know for sure
Is that everything will be better
Once I have a wooden lid over
My deranged head

nirvana means freedom from pain, suffering and the external world.

Dying seems less sad than having lived too little.
The one thing worse than being an ugly duckling in a house full of swans, is having the swans pretend there is no difference.
Some days are just a total waste of makeup.
I know I have a heart. Because I can feel it breaking.
It hurts more to smile in front of everyone, than it does to cry alone.

I could reel off a hundred more of these, but this is the one I want to show you:
For all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these, 'It might have been.'

I don't know what I'm trying to do here...boost your self-esteem? Be yourself. Be Sophie. Start over again. I'd love to meet you No seriously. The part that got to me the most was the trying to pinpoint the exact time when it changed. I do that too, but then again I still have not found my reason.

Hollow.
Courtney.

I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. - Gary Jules, Mad World.
