Tell me why you’re not listening
To a single word I’ve said
Then tell me why I’m crying
Here on somebody else’s bed

Then tell my why my shallow heart
Is bleeding out in pain
And tell me why the life I live
Is driving me insane

It’s almost hard to walk away
I guess I’m not that strong
I’m sick of crying stain-glassed tears
And admitting that I’m wrong

I can’t help that I’m a failure
I’ve always tried my best
I guess that’s not enough for you
And you need all the rest

You see I doubt you’re worth the effort
But I’m far too blind to see
That the remarks you dish out everyday
Are slowly killing me

Someday soon I’ll fight again
But for now I’m just too tired
Your words to me are poison
And it seems you’ve got me wired

So for now I’ll just stop breathing
Even though I’m afraid of dying
Life shouldn’t be this hard
And I’m really sick of trying.

I agree. Many of us have felt this feeling but couldn't find the right words. Jess you are amazing. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

When I see your smile, and I know it’s not for me, that’s when I’ll miss you.

The rhyme scheme was sort of everywhere, but the words were splendid and very meaningful. Nice work..
