Stealing My Sanity You were here and then without a goodbye you were gone. Now even though your not here, You're stealing my sanity. Pushing me past the point of no return. Now here I sit, staring in the mirror. I see a shadow of who I once was. Seeking a reason to continue this tortured existence When it would be so easy to end this meaningless life. I firmly grip the bottle I hold in my hands My heart is racing, My head is rushing with last minute thoughts Most of which you occupy If I don't do it now I never will But I know that I can't live like this anymore. I can't move on so my only choice is to end it. A handful of little blue pills and the deed is done I close my eyes and wait for the spinning to stop You took my sanity, I'm taking my life.
