sadness (written with Dustin S)

sadness

when your alone
you feel numb
you try to be strong
because you fight for your family
you dont wanna give in

when you have no friends
you feel empty
everythings just ehh
nothing matters anymore
depression is what ive grown to know

when your best friend loves your ex
you feel pathetic
hoping the best for them
but deep down you know
you hate it

when who you thought was your friend
talks about you behind your back
you feel stupid
because you thought you knew them
and you wished you hadent

when you have anxiety
you feel scared
of whats going to happen next
of who your gonna hurt next
of what youve done

when you have depression
you feel hopeless
you dont care anymore
youve lost interest
you hate yourself

when you have PTSD
you feel weak
you have flashbacks
you dont want to remember
but it always comes back

through the pain and the hurt
we can lose our way
saying every that its the worst
when the worst was yesterday

we can live in regret
we can sulk in emotion
or we can find an outlet
and destroy the waves of our oceans

just know its never too dumb
the reasons never too inadequate
because the battles already won
you just dont know the half of it
