I am Tired

I AM TIRED
I'm tired of life
I'm tired of the pressure
And of the stress
Tired of always trying to hide
And shield myself from all the rest

I'm tired of struggling
To stay just above the surface
Of the dark black hole beneath me
I know, and I have realized that sooner or later
I will sink into the earth
And no one is able to save me

I know I am alone
I know this is my battle
And I have tried my hardest
To stay strong like stone

But I am tired of that
And I have made my choice

Now is the time
Now is right
This is when I will let myself fly

I will set myself free
Of all this pain and agony

I do not know where I will go
If I will rise above
Or if I will sink below
The world that has shown
Me what darkness really feels like

I am tired now
And I know I have let you down
Just please let me go
You will be OK
Just please release me
For I am tired of life this way.
