Three In The Morning

By LiesWithin

Everyday its a constant battle to be alright
You don't know how worse it gets at night

Thinking of everything that ever hurt me
The trouble is worse than you've ever seen

The nights where I'm numb, feel nothing at all
Then the tears and wanting to die,
Violent outbursts and nobody to call
Wondering why it is I even try

Thoughts surround me, pushing ideas in my head
Its all my fault, I'd rather be dead

And all this time, it wasn't who hurt me
It wasn't who fucked up my life
In my search for love so desperately,
I had to hurt, smile, and lie

That's what gets to me three in the morning
What I had to be just to feel like I was worth something

    I know sometimes you've heard this, but if the world considers you're not worth it, the world is not worth of you. There is always someone that can appreciate all your nonsense, madness, despair, poetry and self-destruction. In my country we have this expression: "There's always a broken one for an unstitched one." Bad translation but hope you understand it.

    I know EXACTLY what that's like. Self justification to the ghost of yesterday, but no one to hear you. When the bolt of anxiety shocks from sleep, and there's nothing but an empty room for you greet. At 3am, when the demons come calling. You are not alone.
